The latest addition to the facilities @kinneston is the Water Dip. At the end of the the horses’ exercise they each walk through it-instantly cooling their legs. Taking the heat out of legs helps prevent any possible injuries and most just like having a splash!

As a trainer having a dual Grade One winner is both a privilege and a lot of pressure, especially when he likes to go this 🙈🙈 but I know the alternative is leaving him in his box to get sour and bored so I have to take a deep breath and let him have his fun... 😬
