Really enjoyed this so far. A real eye opener at Rebecca Curtis yard. I hope allot of people who don't watch much racing watches this and realise it's not all about flogging a horse around a racetrack.
 
Just a personal view, but the emasculation of the National fences will make it a different race from hereon in, with stamina much more a factor than actual jumping ability.
 
One of the best horse-racing documentaries I've seen.

Forgiving them a modicum of poetic-licence, and incongruous footage, it gave a much more sympathetic view of the game than I've seen before, without ever shying away from the difficult questions.

Real good.
 
maybe his son has never actually taken over.....Martin just made out he has to get himself out of the limelight

Nah. A great way to upstage Paul Nicholls when he won the championship for the first time. :D
