There was much to admire in this post but i’ve Selected my favourite bit. I’m picturing a young thouroughbred, from a split home obviously... dad was a bit of a stud... so mum left to bring him up on her own and to make sure he’ll get the trip for the 2.30 at kempton park. “Come on son, I need you to clock 5x 1k intervals, then a bit of light stretching.. then this afternoon you can do a 5k tempo run”
I'm sure in between your sense of humour, which I found funny, that you would be aware that a horse, or horses teach and train their foal out in the wild. I'll presume you're taking mickey cos I didn't use the words Mare and Stallion, wasn't sure you'd know what they were, so used mum and dad instead. What is it with Jock following you around, are you and him having it off or something.............sounds to me like he's madly in love with you.
LOL. I'll leave you to reply to Captain Jackboot @milkyboy . He's got me on ignore, so no point in me replying. Right enough, I'm pretty sure he must be able to hear me laughing.
