Did anybody see that incident in the paddock, when Montaly kicked out at Andrew Balding's wife before the race? She just took it in her stride, She said, "He's got a few issues..." The horse clocked her as it passed and took aim with its hind legs and missed her head by millimetres.
That's the worst incident I've ever seen in the paddock - you couldn't turn your back on that horse for one second - maybe the horse was upset that she literally HAD turned her back. I've read about some "evil" racehorses before, but that was horrendous...

Which was the racehorse that was a serial"biter"? I just can't remember the name of the rogue.

By:
There have been loads..."savages"...Lammtarra...Spectacular Bid...etc...but it's usually stallions that go cranky...El Gran Senor had a temperament like a child's pony.

From an Aussie messageboard --
"Noalcoholic was too savage as a stallion. I heard he was put down because he was too savage." |

"He did say that Unbridled was super sweet and a very gentle stallion that you could do anything with. Ribot on the other hand was known to try and mount trees. He did say the horse was certifiably crazy and you could not trust him at all. "
Lester said Ribot was better than Frankel...  |
