How you can remember how a horse looked 2 months ago compared to now is beyond me! Two months ago the sun is out, everyone is roasting because it's 28 degrees....today most are wrapped up and enjoying a Bovril as opposed to a cold one.....

If he can genuinely make it pay I am over the moon for him. for me it's a fad in the main.
