[RC] President's Cup--opinion - CMNewell

My response is this:

The only American there I can comment on from personal knowledge is Steve Rojek, and that man and everyone else from his farm--Dinah, et al, are class acts. They put their horses first *always*, and are some of the most gracious and sportsmanlike folks I've had the good fortune to meet.

There are horsemen the world over, and there are those who would put the horse second in their quest for glory the world over.
The best you can do is to do right by your own, and try to set an example.



As for Steph's comment:
If I had a horse, the talent, and the money to go, I'd be there in a heartbeat. My one short trip to that part of the world has left me longing to go back and spend more time there.


--CMNewell, DVM

(vividly remembering the horror with which some of the Syrian breeders regarded things they'd heard about Arabian breeders in the US...)
