Barry Hills Interview with Julian Muscat:
Sacred Easter Sunday April 21. 2019:
SACRED SUNDAY APRIL 28:
BH:” If you talk to anyone on
the administration inside a racing stable
so many will tell you the British
Horseracing Authority (BHA) is a
disaster.
So many new rules being brought
in all the time:
JMC: "Bloodhorse Illiterate Rules and Regulations help no one:
They kill racehorses and their jockeys:"
They kill racehorses and their jockeys:"
JM: Nor can he abide the recent
introduction of pre-race checks on horses at
Cheltenham and Aintree. In common
with other trainers,
endorsement
of a horses readiness to race impinges on the integrity of their handlers.
JM: BH: " They (racecourse) had 55 vets employed at Cheltenham
for God’s sake,
he says
“what did that cost? You can’t just tell professional people whether
their horse is
sound or not. The BHA people are very nice, some of them have
never raced in
their life.
JMC: It could be said that most working within the BHA are
"Bloodhorse Illiterate:"
BH: “BHA need to come down to the
grass roots, to understand the sport better.
There are vets in every yard every
morning; whichever
gets it there and then. The way things are on
the welfare front, you could
see National Hunt racing ending, couldn’t you?”
JM: Mention of jumps racing serves
to remind that Hills was more than attuned
to its lure. There have been few
better- bred winners of the Stayers' Hurdle
than Nomadic Way, a son of Prix du Jockey Club winner Assert out of
Kitty Hawk, who annexed the Lowther Stakes.
JM: Hills also saddled Nomadic Way to win the Irish
Champion Hurdle and finish
second twice in the Champion Hurdle. The epitome of
a duel-purpose horse that is
almost extinct today,
Nomadic Way also won the Cesarewitch before embarking
on a career at stud.
BH: The aforementioned Sangster,
who owned and bred Nomadic Way, was a mainstay
patron when Hills started
scaling the heights in the 1970’s. And there he stayed
for four
decades, each of them spent in Lambourn except for four years when he took
over

eventually buy the place but his father isn’t sitting on the
edge of his seat.
So it’s a tall order,”
a fair few quid. But I’m getting too old to spend that kind of cash
anyway.”
FARINGDON PLACE illustrates one of the many
dichotomies within Hills. On the
one hand the man who has four surviving sons would have been mortified had
none of them succeeded him on his retirement. Keeping it in
the family means
everything to him.
On the other hand, he probably wanted each of his
children to make their own way
in life, just as he did when he started from
scratch
years ago. The
story of how he ended up training for patrons like Robert Sangster, Khalid
Abdullah,
Frankincense was the horse who paved the way. Hills
joined trainer John Oxley as head
lad in
the late 1950’s, having ridden seven winners
Frankincense’s workouts in preparation for the 1968 Lincoln Handicap, and availed
himself numerous
times
“I won £64,000 in all,” he reflects. “I used some
of the winnings to buy South Bank
{in Lambourn}
from Keith Piggott, Lester’s father, when
stables cost £16,000, which was a lot of money back then. I’d like
to win the
equivalent again before I pop off.”
“The tidy sum of £64,000 in 1969 equates to just
over 1 million at today’ s values.
To plunder that much within the contemporary
betting landscape
order, especially when Hills’
reputation for landing a touch preceded him. It would
surely be nigh on
impossible to get on.
“It’s a completely different world today
but nothing is impossible,” Hills ventures.
“If you want anything badly enough,
You can do it. In those days you
book on their own opinions,
and that was that. You’d have to be clever to get the money on now.”
Commission agents were also in abundance at that
time. They were men who roamed the
country striking bets on behalf of owners and trainers.
you wanted on and
they would take care of the rest. Hills knew pretty much all of them.
There was Bill Carter, who came from Stoke- on –Trent.
There was a fellow called Dixon
another called De Sousa from
John Gosden’s father, Towser, used them a lot. They had they’re ways and means
of getting the money on but they
have all gone now.

Hills may be 82 but none of the drivers that propelled him to improbable heights have gathered dust - least of all his memory, which remains razor sharp. His tongue can be of the same hue, too. The difference now is that he can smile when reminded of the spate of sobriquets he attracted in his heyday: Most
memorable Mr Combustible, the name given to a horse by longstanding owner Dick
Bonnycastle who Hills trained to win the Geoffrey Freer Stakes 18 years ago.
And there was Free Sweater, which alluded to Hills’ propensity to get stirred
up, and who he trained to win the 1989 Dee Stakes for his lifelong friend Bobby
McAlpine.
Then there’s the one he volunteers of
his own accord. “Mr Grumpy” he says with a wry smile. His wife, Penny, smiles
too, although you’d be wrong to assume that Hills’ professional life, with all
its ups and downs, has been consigned to the vaults while he savours an idle
retirement. The simple truth is that the eight years since he handed in his
license have not bestowed on him la dolce vita.
“I find retirement boring,” he says. “The
truth is the older you get, the less you want to sit down and reflect. It makes
me sad and sentimental; they were such great times. I feel better about things
generally now, because I was poorly two years ago. But I don’t think I will
ever get dementia – I have too much to worry about.”
Those who know Hills well will attest
that he’d have it no other way. The idea that he’d trade shoes for slippers and
recline into a comfortable armchair. Was
always far – fetched. So it is that he leaves his Lambourn house every dawn to
watch the string at Faringdon Place Stables, which he built more than 20 years
ago, and which he passed on to his son Charlie in 2011:
He didn’t so much pass them on as
rent them out. Charlie is a salaried trainer, which means that Hills still pays
the bills. The idea was that Charlie would eventually buy the place but his
father isn’t sitting on the edge of his
seat.
“The stables are worth a fair few quid
so it’s a tall order,” Hills says of the 180 box property. “But I’m getting too
old to spend that kind of cash anyway:”

talks to legendary trainer Barry Hills, 50
years on from
saddling his first winner, pages 15 – 17:
JM: IT WAS nothing less than you’d expect
from Barry Hills. The man with the devil’s eye
for detail was initially
surprised to hear that he’d trained his first winner 50 years ago. Two days
later, having refreshed his memory ahead of our meeting, he was right up with
the pace.
“ It was up at Thirsk,” he starts, “I
don’t think I was there; I was probably at Newbury
that day. April 18 1969. La
Dolce Vita had 7st 8lbs and was ridden by Ernie Johnson in a two- year old- maiden. She wasn't very good but that was the start of it. I'm pretty sure I had 18
winners that first year:
H JM: Hills may be 82 but none of the drivers that propelled him to improbable heights have gathered dust - least of all his memory, which remains razor sharp. His tongue can be of the same hue, too.

RHEINGOLD
He would
have won the 1972 Derby had Lester not ridden Roberto.
Bill
Williamson should have ridden Roberto but he was injured in a fall ten
days
beforehand so Lester took over and beat us a short head. When Rheingold
won the Arc the following season it would have taken a Sea Bird to beat him.
He hacked
up by two and a half lengths from Allez France.

won the 1982 Fred Darling she was sold to Khalid Abdullah.
She was second in the Oaks and went
on to become a wonderful broodmare

The £1.85 million the prince paid for her made
her cheap at the price.
FRANKIE
DETTORI
He rode a
horse for me the other day and said the silks were too tight.
I told him those
silks were made 50 years ago, when jockeys were much smaller.
He has been a
great asset to the game. I’ve never approved of him jumping off
horses but
there is a lot more good in him than bad:
TODAY’S
JOCKEYS
I don’t
think they’re as clever now because they do too much
race-riding. They haven’t got
time to think about what
they’re going to do. And they don’t have time to think about
what
they’ve just done either.
A QUICK
SUMMERY OF HIS CAREER

well enough. If you sat down and tried to pick out 15 Group 1
races we hadn’t
won, I think you’d be scratching your head:
