Hello again...
Possibly inspired by the French Ratings that I sent out earlier on, Daniel (who advises me on the Hong Kong racing) kindly shared a video with me.
I actually got a little bit emotional watching this video (the weepy stuff starts at about 1 minute 50 seconds.)
Now, it's not very often that I get emotional (generally only when Spurs win a football match - once again, not very often) but for a moment I thought that I might have some dust behind my contact lenses...
Until I remembered that I don't wear contact lenses.
You can download the video here... http://focusratings.com/french/An_Unusual_Horse.mp4 or...
You catch watch it on You Tube... https://youtu.be/Rn5FZHlbbL4
Strangely enough, my local old people's home/care home/geriatric hospital has animals; 4 donkeys, lots of chickens and, recently, they have adopted some cats and dogs.
The old people also receive visits from a travelling pet service where they can pet guinea pigs and dogs and so on - the link is here... https://www.letelegramme.fr/finistere/huelgoat/ehpad-mont-leroux-des-animaux-mediateurs-24-10-2019-12417040.php#slide-1
Apparently these pet visits have massively improved the quality of life (and the outlook on life) for the old people.
What a great idea.
Back to the video - what a wonderful horse Peyo is!
I hope that I have brightened up your Sunday with this, slightly not horse racing related, post.
Have a great day but it might be an idea to have a tissue to hand at around 2 minutes into the video.
As always...
My kindest regards
