    Whats the odds of you getting to sit on him let alone go on the gallops with him- would be a dream to do that!

    THE picture to get at the stables would be Frankel and Noble Mission together.

    On Saturday, I will settle for some decent pictures of Frankel winning and some portraits before or after the race. I hope he does not do a Warning on me and get turned over by an outsider, although I did get a terrific picture of Warning in the second place area that day - and I always think he looks sad, so maybe horses do know.

    A stretch, even with my contacts! I know Sir Henry's secretary, not friends as such but we chat when I bump into her around town, she lives with Shane, Frankel's workrider, and even she's not allowed near him. He's a handful by all accounts, and pretty handy with his teeth!

    Getting paid to work him- thats not a job lol. I bet he is- would have to probably put him in like a gag or similar just to stop him although bet his mouth is as soft as anything!would love to take him out for 5 minutes on the gallops
