Story in today’s Post about Kayf Aramis and the Beck horses being moved. At first glance it looks harsh but there are always two sides to a story and it is an owner’s right to choose his/her trainer. Anyone know any more details as to why the horses were moved?
I see from the Rp database search that Paul Beck owned Botham in unison with Willie McKay. Maybe Willie gave him the idea about moving your horses to a different yard every couple of seasons?
Win some, lose some – she only had the horses in her yard because they’d been removed from Richard Guest and John Spearing respectively.
AP
But to be fair to VW, she was doing a very good job with the aforementioned beasts. Why fix something that isn’t broken? Doesn’t make sense.

John Spearing did pretty well with Kayf Aramis too, if the truth be told. Life’s rich tapestry etc etc
Does it actually not ‘harm’ the horses if moved from what they know, get attached to etc..? Or does the freshness of a new situation freshen, liven them up?
It depends which yard they go to and from as to whether it harms them. If they leave a racehorse trainer to go to Peter Grayson, then yes – it harms them. If they leave Peter Grayson to go to a racehorse trainer then no – it revitalises them.
