I like the guy copping a feel of her bum when she went to embrace him after one of the horses wins. Sleazy bastard
Ooooooooh dear me I'll never be able to look at a blue fleece sweater again without getting goose bumps. Marvellous - well done for posting Dan
I just had chance to sit back and catch up on yesterdays highlights as I was out all afternoon on the piss- man do I regret that now. Frankel was put on in the bar at 4pm and received another ovation! Amazing. What can I say about him? He has eclipsed what I thought possible in racing. A lot of the time, racing always feels like one horse can beat another from one week to the next. You think of all the greats, and usually they have met with defeat. You think of wonderful racehorses like Galileo, Montjeu, Fantastic Light, Sakhee, George Washington. The list is endless. So when you hear people say that he wins like no other horse ever has done, you have to try and appreciate the sheer magnitude and context of what this horse has done. When I first heard the hype and watched him race, to me I thought he was always going to be too buzzed up to ever be a true great, and certainly didn't think he would stay 10f. What Cecil and his team have done is magnificent. They really have allowed him to blossom into the most beautiful racehorse. The way he has cruised on the bridle the last twice has been amazing. On good ground yesterday, he would have won that race by a frightening distance. I can't and never will find the words that fit Frankel and his performances. I have searched, but I don't do him justice. Instead, this video, ironically not of Frankel, might sum him up best of all: [video=youtube;NodePxvPJwc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NodePxvPJwc[/video] That is Excelebration- in normal times an all-time great miler who would be unbeaten in over a year. He is a distance better than the rest. Yet Frankel is a distance better than him. Thanks for the memories and get well soon Sir Henry.
