I'm pretty critical of Irwin generally, but this situation involved factors other than his usual peccadilloes. It involves some tensions between the Animal Kingdom 'camp' and Rosario agent Ron Anderson.

As to Rosario overall, coupled with Anderson's famously outstanding 'agentship', he's sure elevated himself to the top of the rider pecking order nationally.

By riding Ramsey's Rockets? Rosario is terrific but lets not too excited about wins on horses that were primed to excel. Surely any competent jock would have been able to be carried to the finish line by those "well meant" animals.

i did note in the article that they had concerns about workouts.

i don't agree or disagree with the change, just found it odd-and i didn't buy it being just about experience at ascot.

i'm sure if i used that work around here, people would think i was talking about a box of armadilloes.
i used the word 'lucrative' at work one day, the boss said we don't use big words around here. i didn't know lucrative was a big word....
