Optimistically!
Owned and trained greyhounds...owned and worked pacers...now in a thoroughbred syndicate.
You learn to take the good with the bad...EI, shin soreness, rashes, etc, etc.
Racing (owning, punting and training) is better than all the philosophies and religions when it comes to coping with everyday life. You develop a fatalism to cope with the bad and develop an appetite for risk that when it pays off is well celebrated and recognised for the transient thing that it really is.
PS..thats not how I talk to my fellow syndicate members...they'd sack me on the spot.
