I have just read this Ivanjica, completely agree with your post. I still have our 27 year old retired racehorse, he cost 2.5k from a greyhound breeder in Ireland. He was third in his first race a bumper at Cheltenham and then went onto win over fences. Pulls faces, bites, won’t turnout, but loves to come down to the house, have a hob-nob or two and currently seems to enjoy watching the Brexit events on TV from the back door! Other half has learn’t to muck out and this little horse has become a big part of our family.
