I had the absolute pleasure to spend an hour in Sir Marks company, some 20 years ago .One of the few gifted people who can interact with ease, with either a Prince or a pauper. Though i think he would rather prefer, purely for financial reasons, a call from a Prince to train a horse, than from the later! . One tip if you ever have the opportunity to meet him, don't be late!!.

I was immensely privileged in that my first contact with the world of horse racing was at the Kingsteignton yard of Sid Kernick. The odd thing is that I knew absolutely nothing about Mr Kernick's huge skill at breaking-in difficult horses. Another brilliant video featuring Sir Mark Prescott - simply captivating to watch!
