Guys, I know it sounds as if Barry Connell was bullshitting with those comments around the DRF, but he has gone away and really thought out how he can, as a man of money, succeed in this game when you have all the PtP winners going for silly money and the avenues for good French breds being blocked by the existing agents who all have the existing premier trainers/owners on speed dial.
His operation is a plan in process, with barely 30 or so horses, all in his ownership. Great to see this innovation. He's also secured the services of a burgeoning talent in the saddle with the necessary balls of steel.

There was no probably about it in his interview right after the race! Have to admire the balls trainer and jockey have.
"I hope we are only beginning the journey now," he said of his six-year-old, who returned at odds of 9-2. "This lad will probably come back for the Arkle next year. That would be my initial thought at this point in time but we'll see. Today is for enjoying today."
Not the first time they've misquoted people thoughLong bitcoin, long gold, long silver, long g/s opening day Cheltenham Festival
