Hunt Ball rolls into town
Forget posting about his meteoric rise through the handicap ranks (from a class 5 chase at Folkestone to finishing the season 3rd in the class 1 Betfred Bowl Chase) or where he'll be pointed (New York Turf Writers Cup, the Lonesome Glory, the Grand National and possibly the Nakayama Grand Jump)...
THIS is the effect Hunt Ball has...  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xbI3xXsroE Kinda sad that his (very colorful) owners are out of the game but apparently they got an offer they couldn't refuse and so he'll be on his way here on the 24th. Jonathan Sheppard will train him. Have to include this cause it's so much fun... this is dairy farmer and amature jockey Anthony Knott getting his first win. It only took 28 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1EHL4OMlK4  http://www.racingpost.com/horses/hor...abs=horse_form

Great thread. I'm a big fan of the Folkerstone.

I like stories like this one, horses like this who surpass all expectation...
Owners like this who are so completely exuberant and uncensored... ... hearing about horses who are bought and sent here, to this country, to race... I'm sorry this seems to bother a couple of you so much. I can't quite figure out why it does but hey if it makes you feel better to make it like I'm some complete moron for posting this kind of thing? Go for it. Glad I could help.
