[@angiegranberry3366]

Awesome horse and trainer!! Thank you Carl for loving Kinsale King!!

[@maryworkman6512]

Ditto to this comment. Both Carl and K.K. deserve all the love and respect in an abundant , fulfilling portion. .........so rare a relationship within the horseracing population as we experience it. Thank you Carl. If you write a book about K.K., I will buy it! Please keep us all posted.

[@elvisfan61]

Thank you for sharing this film. I remember Kinsale King from back in the day. I'm glad he is with Carl now. He looks like a sweetheart.

[@ds3333]

I thank the owner, trainer and others involved for scratching Kinsale King when necessary. You did the right thing in a difficult situation. I'm glad he was able to live a great retired life, when so many do not.

I could never take the pressure of always needing to win. Horses are EVERYTHING I love them. Mike Smith is the Man!

[@kenglass7833]

so true mate!!!!!! No foot no horse !!

[@30dayride67]

Happy to see King retire with Carl. Very nice to see a team including owners that put the horse's health and well being first from beginning to end. What an exciting ride he took them all on!

[@annagarner1280]

I love how carl cares more about Kinsale kings health and happiness then the prestige of the win (sure itsgreat to win ) and not willing to sacrifice kings life for the trophy , cash and notoriety...I truly appreciate & Respect Carl for this....Lovely to actually see a great trainer like him still exists in this day n age !!!@

[@88shena]

yes is in phasis with his pet, he loves her . She got love, and heart??.......to win, nope

[@annagarner1280]

[@jrbanks2983]

Over my many yrs... I've seen many a man enter horses n dogs to win races n shows. I've seen these men put in copious hrs caring and training. But to see a man truly, deeply, from the soul.. love their horse or dog the way Carl did KKing, well that's just beyond special. A man who can bond like that, and then 'has' to keep it, as a pet, into retirement... That's pure love - no holds barred. Beautiful 🏆

[@janicewhedbee5199]

Such a great documentary the ups and downs of that gorgeous looking Kinsale King. The foot was giving him hard times racing but got better on the synthetic tracks and winning. Dr Sheehan was going to let the trainer go if the horse didn’t win, l believe the horse heard that and beautiful King turn that around for his buddy,Carl. A beautiful happy ending and so glad King lives with his buddyCarl at his new home.Thankyou Carl.❤️🐴❤️

1:05:39 - These TWO guys are the most unlikable jackass owners I have ever seen. Why did this "movie" ever get made? Two old rich guys and a new trainer get LUCKY as hell for a few races then act like the horse is Secretariat and are pissed when they dont win every time AND cart the horse all over the world for THEIR ego? Pretty disgusting "story" actually....You want an INSPIRING horse racing story? Go watch "Cody's Wish" and THAT Story from start to finish. This movie only inspires me to tell the owners to eff off...

How wonderful they kept King into retirement and always made sure he was happy & healthy! Wonderful story😊

[@marysheehy4733]

Wonderful story and amazing horse and team. I was at the Dubai World Cup as spectator in late 90s. Love how you cared for King!!

[@peterlbaldwin511]

An Inspiring and heart-warming story of the essential yet all too often elusive symbiosis between a race horse with ability yet also with problems in his hoofs and a trainer with determination and ambition, yet with the all important understanding of his charges' particular needs. To me it is especially rewarding to know that at the end of his racing career Kinsale King was rewarded with an honourable retirement, in the care of the trainer who had established such an undeniable bond with the horse..! He had definitely earned it..!!

[@annagarner1280]

A REAL TRAINER I would be honored to Stand by ....😍 ...

[@mrs.c5471]

I LOVE the people on his team, they are in it for the right reasons! God bless them and their families

Beautiful!!! I just loved how they put the horse first! And that he went to the best home ever! The trainer who loved him!!! Bless you

[@soundsfortoday3623]

What an amazing relationship between horse and trainer. Was so impressed with that bonding.

[@cannamallsa1471]

I have worked on the sidelines in the racing industry in South Africa since I was 16 and have always loved horses. The game has been under the most tremendous pressure and to see this was awe-inspiring. The love between man and horse gives heart and especially to see such a wonderful retirement, still together. May all horses, owners and trainers be so blessed and have that one moment in time to cherish and yet appreciate all of the others!

[@markireland7541]

The passion and happiness when the horse wins in Dubai unreal . We Irish do love horses 🐎

I knew that ground was too fast in the July Cup for him. Even without his shoe problems unfortunately abit more good ground he may have been better. I really think he could have been in top 3 again with softer going.

[@stephenmolaro2031]

Been involved in horse racing my whole life but took a few years off when I moved out west and missed this story about this horse! Super retrospect on incredible athlete and everyone involved in his success!

[@MrNomadBrad]

Excellent story and film telling the story.

[@kenglass7833]

Great Documentary !! Everything that Kinsale King did he did for Carl, this animal bonded with him and loved their relationship !! He was a very happy horse and thrived on their one on one time together. Very special animal and I can say one thing the two brothers that owned him had very little to do with this animals success.

[@atticuskilby515]

It reminds me of the Seabiscuit story and how that horse ran for the trainer. Special bonds do develop between horses and people, a resonance and mutual love of sorts. The two brothers were smart enough to purchase the horse(many people would not have given the horse a 2nd look at the sales) and to chose a young and passionate trainer.

[@tadghmurphy7807]

I love this lad. Carl always had great passion. Passionate family great people. Maith an fear Carl.

[@mrs.c5471]

Very well done, they didn’t hide the reality of this sport and the “brothers” were honest in their expectations, I have respect for them in that they find good homes for their horses when it’s racing career is over, I especially LOVE that they understood the bond between KK and Carl and honored that. Carl is what a GOOD horse trainer is, he actually appears to love them and that will get a subpar horse much further, safer, than a trainer merely in it for the $$/fame/ego

[@pauldixon1766]

[@theatrain5388]

These owners are so ungrateful, he made an ordinary horse into an international champion and as soon as the horse wasn't winning they want him gone

[@andysummers2936]

Don’t think you understand the business of racing. The horses are business assets. If you ran a business and your employees weren’t performing you would get rid of them. Same thing here

[@theatrain5388]

@@andysummers2936 problem is racing is not a business it's a hobby, I own 6 horses myself so I think I understand it pretty well, the trainers results were way above average for returns.

[@hannahsmith6339]

I personally spent 10 years in the racing industry. These horses carry a heavy price tag with them no matter where they go. If they dont preform on the track, 99% of the time their pedigree will save them. They are sold to stud farms to become breeders to future athletes. Only the ones who do not have the track record or pedigree will then be sold into second careers, usually through a Retired Race Horse Project rescue or trainers. Typical yearlings sell for 20k to 800k at auction in September. They are not “tossed”.

[@hannahsmith6339]

Trainers, Owners, and especially the Grooms care too much about these horses for them to be treated poorly or end up in the wrong hands.

[@deauntebailey2726]

That’s the game Sorry if you wanted a better outcome but winning means more money to continue the business if you don’t win you’ll go broke running said business

I absolutely agree with your comment. Not that I ever liked racehorse sport of any kind. I watched a documentary about the racehorse in Australia and I am deeply saddened to see the grisly nature of how they get rid of horses that are no longer considered productive. Absolutely heartbreaking. The King and the Queen before him should be ashamed of themselves in my opinion. Looking forward to your reply.

Really, what are you trying to convey. Are there a few words, half-sentences or headlines from books or newspapers or books referencing newspaper headlines(most apparently related to horses) thrown together in such a way that together they do not contribute to a greater point or narrative. Or is it intentional or unintentional gibberish. Not a literary piece of genius, barely literate at all in fact, and if some avant-garde attempt, which isn’t my particular cup of tea. I ask because I genuinely would like to understand your motivation to post.
