John Gosden on an "extraordinary day" for him & his son Thady, which included two big wins in Dubai

John Gosden tells Nick Luck that Mishriff and Lord North are to be freshened up for major engagements this summer after they headlined a super Saturday for John and Thady Gosden on their first weekend with a joint licence.
The father and son team not only scooped two of the top prizes at Meydan, but took the Lincoln at Doncaster with Haqeeqy and had a double at Kempton through Otyrar and Global Giant.

When Mr Gosden speaks about racing im almost in a trance listening. He is so clear,informative and knowledgeable. Brilliant,just brilliant.

Anyone claiming a hard luck story for their horse in the Dubai Turf is kidding themselves if they think that horse could've run into anything better than a place. At the 300m marker, Dettori had Lord North cruising like he had a missile stuck up his ass, and by the time the field hit the 200m marker it was all over but the crying. Mishriff on the other hand found life a bit tougher in the Dubai Sheema Classic, but take a minute and put into perspective what this horse has accomplished just in his last two races alone. On only his second career start on conventional dirt he won the richest race in the world, the $20 million dollar Saudi Cup over 9F on conventional dirt, and at Meydan on Saturday on his first career start going 12F on turf, he won the $5 million dollar Dubai Sheema Classic. Has to be an incredible feeling for John Gosden and the connections that Mishriff could be pointed now at about any major middle distance event in the world at G1 level on conventional dirt or turf, at 10F or 12F, and he'd very likely be a major player in any of those races. When it comes to training a thoroughbred to become a champion, it just doesn't get any better than John Gosden, IMO.

Mr Gosden always has time to talk on course; I had a nice chat at Goodwood with him.

You're lucky, Tina. Id love to have a chat with John Gosden on course, what horses were you chatting about with him?

[@galwayrover]

A master of his craft.

Amazing to see how loved and adored flat racing is all over the rest of the world. But it’s so hated by most racing people in the UK, why?

[@yimmilopez-hidalgo251]

Not true

[@iminc5498]

@@yimmilopez-hidalgo251 In the UK is it true. Many racing fans complain about the flat season & the TV figures are always a lot lower.

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

@@iminc5498 most people prefer the jumps racing, I’m one of them. There’s too much flat racing in the uk now, prize money is crap and aw has diluted it even more.

[@davidmachen158]

top man but wonder whether he can be top trainer in uk this year. has good older horses but lacks good 3 year olds this season

[@yimmilopez-hidalgo251]

Well am glad MR Gosden has found a new talented Ryder in Lafayette because one just can not make a Bob on his horses when Havlin is piloting. It is a recipe for financial crash. 😂
