Thumbs up Pat Hyland

Sending a great thumbs up to Pat Hyland.
Pat is passionate about horses. He actually cares about their welfare.
Pat gave me one of his horses, rather than send him to the auctions, because he knew he'd have a good home. Many may not know that I run a not for profit thoroughbred rescue organisation.
Pat doesn't stable his horses all day, he lets them enjoy the great outdoors and only stables his horses at night.
As I wandered up the gravel driveway, there were chooks roaming free and stablehands quietly riding up an unmade road. The whole place felt very relaxed like a sanctuary.
Pat is 75 years old and still gets up at 2:45am to ride his own horses in track work. He gets a hands on feel for how his own horses are going.
Not sure I'd have his balance at 75 years of age, I'm finding it a major challenge and I'm 22 years younger.
Well done Pat, keep up the wonderful work.
