Christ..I thought I was being profound! Happy New Year all

Highs - A 2yo I looked after winning on debut as we thought he would after months of niggling problems, Was a worrier but a absolute gentleman of a colt.
Lows - Same horse being sold shortly after only to fall apart as he needed treating with kid gloves and wasn't going to get that where he went, Not ashamed to admit I cried like a baby knowing what fate awaited him and watching it unfold was heartbreaking.
Wish I could have brought him back in.

Happy New Year everyone.
