Ashley Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) I see that Jacob McKay has lost two good horses to Rogie after Ruakaka including Aadalune. That's really sucks especially as we can probabaly all guess how it played out after the filly was surprisingly beaten.

Freda Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Shame for the lad. ..unfortunately that's the way it often plays for the smaller operations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All The Aces Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I gather the other would be Mr Universe, a 4yo entire (should have been gelded) who is now with his third trainer. Aalaalune over 1000m at Ruakaka was never a certainty. She did well to run a close second at that distance. From what I have heard the owner is a nightmare to train for so it should be an interesting scenario with Rogie. Shame for Jacob but a lot of stress would have also been loaded up into the float and gone away with the two horses. Jacob will be stronger for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kihikihi Kid Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 See Richardson lost Global Diamond as well. Owner's got some real shite horses. Sounds like a real twat. Going to Rogie is mind boggling , they'll be gone to another trainer by this time next year, bad karma pal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomass Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 'New' bee owners must be a nightmare to present day Trainers...under pressure already... If Shillings for Jillings or any old time Trainers had this grief from newbie owners the neddy would be at their doorstep in no time... At least he's spending his money in this Industry.... Don Ho wanted to and did...and on Prima facie evidence...got taken advantage of... Praise be to da gods that Bren Lindsey got into plastics before the Greens banned them...and hooked up with the Yanks who love plastic.. ...while Bren was already hooked on Thoroughbreds Now Someone needs to gift a blue blood Thoroughbred to Graeme Hart or any close relatives..to get that incredibly rich family...hooked line and sink.. ...and tell them Eric Watson's now dire predicament had absolutely nothing to do with his involvement in this Industry..but it was due to hooking up with loose az women Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many are still involved in horse ownership especially that syndicate that raced around 10 horses in the early days. Mind you its a ''buyer beware'' situation.
