Re: Real Players Inside The Backstretch
That’s a cool video! It’s funny how things are so different but also so similar between Australian training setups and the states. I giggled when you said you originally wanted to be a jockey you’re like twice my height. That being said, one of the best jockeys in my state is near on 6 foot.

Re: Real Players Inside The Backstretch
No problem! And what are some of the differences? I’m not too familiar with training in different countries other than the little I heard about Europe. And yes how tall are u? And my jockey dreams ended pretty early but I live them out on gallop racer and champion jockey and that’s nice he’s that tall and still able to make weight.Cleo Patra wrote: ↑1 year ago That’s a cool video!

No problem at all! U should definitely follow him. There’s so many stories from different perspectives from people of all ages and backgrounds. It’s really fascinating and I’m glad he’s giving a voice to the people on the backside.

Re: Real Players Inside The Backstretch
I finally had time to watch and was glad I did. Fair Grounds is a place I’ve sent horses to, but never seen it for myself. You’ve put a huge smile on my face, thanks Royal!
