    Terrific trainer. Really enjoyed this. Alot of top end group one performers he trained. Lots of multiple group one winning fillies to some top class mid 130s colts like St jovite, new approach. I'm fairly sure teofilo would have been absolute top class 3year old also particularly over middle distances. Proving to be a very good sire also. Also not mentioned amoung others polonia group one winning sprinter and good. Also noora Abu the way she improved through the ranks one of my favs.

    I backed poetic flare in the guineas. I knew that when Jim bred him it was to target the 2,000 guineas and the plan come off at 18-1

    Trained and sold the winner of a Melbourne Cup also. Great trainer stretching the extremes with breeding his own stock. I think if you told someone today to breed and own the horses they’d say you where crazy.

      @@robertdelacy3434 He still has the same owners? And if that is the case, it's quite a shame, maybe that's why we will always have doping and people too scared to speak out? I just think he's like a lot of trainers when they get to a certain age, they lose many of their old owners for natural reasons and they start to wind down.

    Such a shame "Gentlemen Jim" fell asleep during Teofios monster drift in the Guineas, just a day before he was coincidentally pulled out injured and retired. Most unfortunate.
