Johnny de la Haye removes all his horses from Paul Nichols yard

✅ PIC D'ORHY one of seven who will now be trained by newly crowned champion trainer Dan Skelton.

A few months ago I told you Nicholls  was finished and should retire and sell Ditcheat I was called a Moran When trainer treats his his clients with contempt this is what happens

A 20% S/R and over 2M in prizemoney last season and you think he should retire? Behave yourself stocks. Jonny only has a dozen in training and Pic is coming to the end of his Career. Its not ideal to lose him as an owner but its hardly the end of the world

Good job. Well done, Paul 

What happened to him? His horses are first off the bridle every week it seems.

There was a thread up before this,anyone see it?,wrote in all capitals.
On the lines of(NICHOLS IS FINISHED)
Been removed for some reason.
Who's taking these down ?

PUMPKIN FINISHED my thread and I didn't take it down

probably needs 2 mill in prize money to keep the yard  running

MEGS magic touch

Could be something other than the performance of the horses - yard still has a good strike rate, the bottom is hardly falling out.  I remember when those two yanks who went under the name of Pell Mell Partners took their horses away from Andy Turnell. There was only a few of them but he'd done brilliantly with Katabatic. It turned out that it was purely to do with them not approving of Turnell having an extra marital affair. Not saying this is anything on those lines but I'd guess, as has been the case with some other owners, it's a clash of characters.

Reckon you're on the right track there VL.

If he would have an affair with she who must be obeyed I would send him a horse.

As an aside, the Post cites the Sun as a source. You'd have thought the trade paper should have better contacts.

one affair is ok but an extra one too much

I am no fan, but without any explanation, this seems a very strange decision.

Remember when Mullins sent him three horses,they all flopped,when theywent back to Mullins immediate improvement,must be the Irish Sea air.

I'm a big fan of the sweet Derry air.

I love the Derry air too. It does wonders for Noel Kelly's gambles

mega nickers derriere not to be sniffed at
