I have a hard time believing this.....

A journalist first? Well ummmm yea..... many writers go into PR.

Sorry but I think it's nuts to blame him for ANYTHING.

Do you know what he does? No, i didn't think so. Do you know the person who worked along side him for three years?

The guy is an idiot.

The only reason he is getting his way is through brown nosing. I feel sorry for Saeed because he is the one that people jump on first, but he plays a back room role now.

You're telling me a journalist has the right background to train racehorses and tell the Sheikh which ones he should waste his money on.

The more i read i more i realise that you know very little about Godolphin apart from some of the horses that they "train"

Out of curiousity...if you know so much more, how come you haven't been able to get a job in the Thoroughbred Industry?

Are you going to contribute to this thread in anyway?

This is coming from somebody that had a strop when people go off topic on racing threads

Your opinion is so jaded in a pro-Coolmore/anti-Godolphin way that there is no point in trying to add anything of substance since you won't listen to it. I'd have a better chance of convincing a Bush supporter that we'd have been better off with Howard Dean as President.

Believe me...... i'm far from pro Coolmore. I can't stand either of them, but as far as success and running a business is concerned, i do admire Coolmore because they do it so well. They themselves aren't great for racing, but at least they don't go out buying other people's horses what seems like every month with Godolphin.

You don't hear about Coolmore/ Ballydoyle having lots of injuries and break downs, not like you do with the Godolphin horses.

I'm not a fan of either, but Godolphin make me sick how they ruin so many horses in the space of a few months and they think by buying another one it will make it all better again.

I know people at Godolphin, which is how i know what goes on there. It has nothing to do with my employment whatsoever.
