Please Do bring him along safely. You really got lucky with that one. Ive never seen such a young horse do such a good job. Make sure he is always healthz and taken care of. I have a feeling he mightnt make zou millions, but hell be speacial in another waz.
You know Jay, There's a horses running at Pimlico and Belmont, I think, he's from Japan, who's trainer says needs a work out partner... do you know anybody that might have a horse in New York to help them out for the Belmont? Lol Still a Lani Fan.
I can't thank you enough for uploading these videos. I'm currently writing a fictional story where the main character works closely with thoroughbreds. Your videos are straightforward, entertaining, and very informative. :) Lord Admiral is a beautiful horse. And so well-tempered. Thanks again. I do have a couple of questions. When a thoroughbred's racing is done for a season (not retiring but just finished for the year), where do they go? Do they go back home to their owners or do they return to another center to live and train until the owner wants to put them in races again? I've watched quite a few documentaries on racehorses so far, but the programs always seem to skip those details. Haha.
OMG who is the heavy dolt sitting on this poor two year old! First day! His trot is completely ruined from when he was a free moving yearling, is this the weight of the rider or being broken too soon or both. A horse of this size shouldn't be ridden untill he is 3,5 -4 years old his large relatively weak frame simply cannot cope and you can see it in his movement.
They started backing and breaking him when he was only 1yrs old!!! This poor horse is going to be crippled when it's older with all kinds of problems!!
You are misinformed. We are lucky to have available now extensive inedependent university-based research on the developement of young horses that clearly indicates that horses that begin appropriate work at this age and even younger are healthier and stay sounder than horses that don't.
Bear in mind, I'm talking about real horses, not Breyer toys. If you disagree, back it up with sound information. "Rubbish" does not add anything to your argument. You have to do some work here, gather good information and diseminate it here.
You clearly don't know what your doing to such a REAL young animal. All you lot just care about winning races and getting trophies. There are so many Thoroughbreds out there that are crippled and messed up becauev not being able to go out to the paddock or for only an hour at the very most!
I know exactly what I'm doing and this horse is very lucky to have as a good a horseman as I am looking after it along with a top notch vet and farrier. All of the horses I have trained have retired in good health to continue to lead useful lives as breeding stock, riding horses, and other jobs that ensure they will be cared for for the rest of their lives. They are not cripples. You're just blowing smoke. You can't back up your assertions with facts. You don't know equine physiology or anatomy or how horses are bred for specific uses. It is unlikely that you are aware that horses, beyond a tiny population of Przwalski's horse in central Asia, do not exist in the wild except as feral domestic horses. They are DOMESTIC animals, creations of men that would not otherwise exist.
I know this is an old video and that he has come to be an maxing race horse since this, and congrats to ya'll yet I can't get over the man not being able to sit and or rise to the trot ofa horse of this standard. Find some better training jockeys mate.
Why are doing heavy riding on a two year old? While studies do show some things that prove this to be okay, galloping a two year old who also clearly appears to be a late developer can lead to severe issues. He is not my horse though, so it is your choice if you want to treat him that way. This is just my opinion.
It's all about preparation. They have to be prepared for each step they take. We are so lucky to have, finally, solid research to give us direction. Although the vast majority of Thoroughbred trainers are far behind, many of us no longer have the complications that used to come with training 2 y.o.'s, like bucked shins. Shins soreness is now rare but previously had been a certainty with virtually every 2 y.o. and routinely caused weeks out of training with drastic, ineffective and brutal "remedies". Since I have been using the Maryland Shin Program, I have had nothing more than a couple of incidents of mild shin soreness that was resolved in 10 to 14 days with nothing more than rest, cold therapy and NSAID. Shoeing is another area that is undergoing rapid improvement with tremendous benefit to the welfare of the young horse. I can't be more specific regarding this without tipping my hand and perhaps losing my edge over other trainers. They can do their own research. Nonetheless, this newly available information has taken most, if not all, of the risk out of training 2 y.o.'s and allows us to take advantage of the proven benefits, longer careers due to early strengthening of the musculoskeletal system for example, of racing them at this age. I believe your concerns would be of greater benefit to the horses if they were directed at the governing bodies of racing, urging more out of competition testing, stricter enforcement of existing rules and stronger punishment for violators. That would help trainers like me by protecting us from the cheaters and allowing us to race clean and still be competitive. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your comment and concern.

I love your progress videos on your horses... This is great!!! It's like watching a mini series Documentary!!!
...Plus this Horse is phenomenal
+ShortNanxious
We're lucky to have him. Thanks
You really are... he's got that stretchy shoulder and long legs for reaching out, if he needs too
You know Jay, There's a horses running at Pimlico and Belmont, I think, he's from Japan, who's trainer says needs a work out partner... do you know anybody that might have a horse in New York to help them out for the Belmont? Lol
Still a Lani Fan.
I hope they get him figured out. I think it's great that they have participated. Their horse ran better than a lot of others.
+Jay C. Nehf Thanks. I think he has calmed down... He just has to figure out how to maneuver a little better... lol
He moves so beautifully!!
Beautiful lead change! :)

Great horse!
He's absolutely magnificent!
WOW!!!! Beautiful horse and he just glides like an angel.
These videos are very well done! Lord Admiral is very lovely.
Thank you Champ!
Great video! Beautiful Lad!
Only 5 starts? Where did all the horsemen go?
Lord Admiral? 9 starts, abd that's not a lot. It's complicated but LA had an intestinal ailment that cut his career short
...wow!!! He is amazing
How did horse know to change lead legs if there was no bend?
It's like swithing hands when you carry a suitcase. Gives them a little break
@@JayCNehfracing . Swithing hands. My word of the Day then.

Lord Admiral, Man O' War, Seabiscuit....Related?
oh yes, Man o war is there and Seabiscuit is a grandson of Man o war
They started backing and breaking him when he was only 1yrs old!!! This poor horse is going to be crippled when it's older with all kinds of problems!!

he is good call and collected because he doesn't know better
He is in perfect condition he is with his mom in a comfortable environment
You stated this horse is. YEARLING?? Who rides a horse at a year old?? Looks more like 2 yrs old...
They are just short of 2 years old.
When you are done with this horse I will buy him lol
Well thanks, but honestly- he's family
Don't you own him?
Oh yes, for better or for worse!
