    well paul nicholls always had the support of paul barber so he never struggled its alot easier for a trainer starting out if they  have an owner like that right from the start!!!!!!!!!!!  Also Paul Barber owned half of silver birch and as far as i know hes still married………….and as for whitford don he might have been running of a much lower mark but he was obviously alot happier as he won without blinkers they always said he was ungenuine and would stop as soon as he hit the front but he won by 10 lengths with clare ENOUGH SAID……

    all true paul must feel a right prat..and is:angry:  as soon as one aint showing form there shunted of elsewhere, and if a good horse and injured there soon forgotten…..ie azertyuiop when u get the likes of kauto,  and as for whitford don he was a good horse and shunted away he did well under the ride of ms dyson and had a happy life until he sadly departed us.:(

    most top trainers get top horses not many top trainers get crap horses to win with do they:cheesy:

    no he was sold last year, he was a real cheaky chap, when he came in from holiday in field he used to have clip on bolt on door as he used to let himself out, and then let the others out onto the yard…atleast his last months were in a small and loving owner  , he was a truly lovely horse x:(

    i also voted for 4 and although im not a massive punter i am infact there picking up peices of horses in aftercare sometimes after being injured,sometimes due to running  when not in there rtue form and fitness……..also for all the great and not so great horses that over the past few years the amount of horses that have been broken down and somecases fatally injured, in order to gain merit for champion trainer etc……:(
