I know what you mean about gallops but I got my rating down to a pat as far as humanly possible, and making good money.

But I find the dogs more interesting and simpler, maybe I'm wrong.

Can't say I know any dog or horse by name, that's not how I work, although a good friend of mine who died early in life had some very good dogs racing and his son is still a trainer.

I don't keep in contact with him I was a friend of his father, he has only a few dogs in training, two are good, I follow them.

Cheers
