Sir Mark Prescott: why I still love training racehorses

[@musicmike1972]

Sir Mark is always great to listen to and full of entertaining stories and knowledge.

[@stephenholmes1036]

This man's knowledge is incredible on racecourses , turf, handicapping knowledge. He is the man who should be charge of racing. Im a NH man too! But he was too soft with William Haggas

[@malcolmnelmes9447]

I never get tired listening to Sir Mark, he must be the most interesting person in the racing industry.

Pulling strokes all his life and doesn't deny it only wish l knew when it was going to happen 😅 magnificent trainer no doubt about that

[@frankelforever14]

As you say he doesn't exactly hide his tactic so just look out for a two or three year old he trains finish out the back in three 6f maidens then put them in your stable tracker and wait for them to reappear the following season over 12f+ trips and build up a winning sequence.

Any chance we could get Sir Mark on every week?

[@johnh1252]

Instead of the pundits preferably

[@WESSERPARAQUAT]

Sir Michael Sir Henry and definitely Sir Mark can be mentioned in the same breath as those greats , a more astute trainer you will never find small team and expertly handled/campaigned and i think he will achieve one of his great ambitions this year ;)

The only man in racing who can talk more than Neil Channing.

[@richardmartin9961]

It would appear that the racing elite feel that Labour does not like horseracing. But it could be said that the racing fraternity does not like Labour. Is racing alienating less wealthy people? Is this why Tv viewing numbers are a shadow of past ratings?Are there any demographics on people going racing / betting? If horseracing does not have a broad appeal, then there is only one way things will go.

[@Ernest_Thesiger]

I should remind those who think Mark is a brilliant, lovely man that he openly admits that he gets pleasure out of seeing animal cruelty! The racing authorites are desperately trying to convince the general public that everybody in racing is a kind-hearted animal-lover who wouldn't harm a fly, so giving air-time to a hare courser who says his three great passions are coursing, cock fighting and bull fighting seems unwise!

[@johnh1252]

Luck is pro-hunting

[@mincerification]

And to think racing is not a target of on the seamless animal rights agenda that needs a robust defender like Sir Mark is also unwise. Great to see Neil Channing and Sir Mark on the same couch. They certainly wouldn’t agree on much politically but I think they would on how animal rights threatens horse-racing.

[@stephenholmes1036]

A great coursing man
