Clive Brittain hopeful Rizeena can see out mile
Clive Brittain (born 15 December 1934) is a British race-horse trainer. He began training as an apprentice in 1949, and on his own as a licensed trainer in the early 1970s. He currently trains at Carlburg Stables in Newmarket, Suffolk. His best-known horse is Pebbles, winner of the 1,000 Guineas in 1984 and the Breeders' Cup Turf in 1985.
Clive Brittain's original little
jig, especially to welcome his winners back off the track and directly into the winners enclosure, has been
taken out of context. This was Clive's
way of showing his winner how pleased he was with their performance and for no
other reason. Lets hope that this
afternoon Clive can greet Rizeena in this way in the
winners enclosure.
EQUUS ZONE

that the British Political and Horseracing Governments refuse to honour.
BIG RACES COMING UP
Equus Zone: Great Racing Partnerships
In the fifth part of a week-long series, Nicholas Godfrey on how the languid dandy Henry Cecil and Kentucky Kid' Steve Cauthen ruled on the Flat in the 1980's. Pages 16-17
A great Equus Zone Series all week don't miss it.
PAUSE FOR THOUGHT
Graham Cunningham Forthright views
every Friday
International rules body sorely
needed - Thorny issues of interference.
"WHAT
would you get if you crossed a volatile Indian racing crowd with a vigilant set
of German stewards?
"Absolute mayhem would be the most likely scenario after a week which featured riots at Pune racecourse and a decision to demote the first two home in a Group 1 at Cologne , racing desperately needs to find harmony over the thorny issues of interference.
"The closet hooligan in me quite likes the idea of punters venting their spleen when faced with 'doosre results' but the fact the BHA must decide whether to ratify an Indian ban imposed on Martin Dwyer sparked purely by mob reaction remains deeply unsettling
"You can't accuse the Cologne stewards of ducking the issue in the Preis von Europa- especially as the original winner Meandre is owned by controversial Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov-but it's very hard to watch the footage of Sunday's race and think justice was done.
"If
you haven't seen the replay it will be aired on C4 during thios afternoon's
show from Newmarket .
"And
if you have seen it you will know one of Germany 's biggest prize was handed
to a horse who suffered precious little interference after the first two home
were found guilty of squeezing remote fourth Earl Of Tinsdal.
Racing
still stands alone among major sports in that the outcome of the contest
depends entirely on crucial rules which vary massively from nation to nation.
"It
seems there is no international body capable of banging the relevant heads
together.
"If
racing truly wants to be taken seriously in an era of global gambling
interest then it's high time one was
established."
That
there are no true Sports rules for British Horseracing or for Global Horseracing
is stark and frightening. It shows a
complete lack of understanding and of any sort of caring for either the
racehorses themselves or for their handler riders. Britain 's political and horseracing
governments continue to show a cruel and evil indifference to this sport, and to all those who work within it.
The
fact that our own Queen Elizabeth's quest in the early 1980's over 30 years ago, was to seek out the
American horseman Monty Roberts to help her to establish in Britain an Equus
Zone underlining the rights and needs of all racehorses, all horses, and indeed
all animals, all living creatures attempting to exist here on this earth with
mankind. A massive step forward in the right direction for all living beings who inhabit this globe.
That
our own Queen Elizabeth and her racecourse at Ascot
plays a pioneering major part in global horseracing. And the fact that our Queen has horses
in training herself, and has done throughout her reign. That our Queen and members of her own family have achieved true bloodhorse literacy in their own right at the highest levvel. Is a further massive step in the right direction as well.
In 2006 Zara Phillips was voted BBC Sports Personality of the Year by the British viewing public (an award her mother won in 1971). She was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in in 1971).
There
is absolutely no excuse for either British political, horseracing or legal government's sick attitude in
continue on along their evil path of destruction.
