Amazing
Where we tend to do 2 or 3 laps slow work & on fast mornings roll off from the 1200 to gallop from the 1000 with track work basically lasting 15 minutes

In England they basically work slow work lap after lap with a faster no good horse joining the derby chance after 2 laps they also work up a hill which is basically full of wood shavings about a foot deep & the ones that get to the top & still have abit of fire in them are the ones likely to continue onto the derby they work a horse for over a hour !!!!

As well as they cant understand our way of bringing up our distance horses through the distances 1200 to 1400 onto 1600 to1800 then 2000 & over they put them in a 2500 mtre race first up !!!!
Has only ever been done here very rearly robbie laing did it but he trialled his horse 3 times over 1000 in 1 day.

Apparently they leave there good horses home as they dont want to risk them travelling & send mainly their good time form horses over abit like there good 2nd string horses

Would be bloody interesting to see thats for sure
