Bob Bone Quotations

It's been a fantastic meet, ... I had a really, really good month.

Post the London bombings of last year, every school that was signed up from the U.S. came and performed and did so completely safely.

He's really the first good horse I owned. So I'll remember every one of his races.

If we're prepared and we do come in big numbers to visit the U.S. and Florida in particular, I think we're going to be pretty upset with the idea that some people in Florida have deemed London an unsafe place to visit.

Well I don't think it's a good one. Let me put this in context for you, we had over the last twenty years we've welcomed nearly 100,000 Americans, some young, some old, to take part in this event. Every single one has done so safely.

I've done the math. Between shipping, fees, everything else, if you win the Breeders' Cup Sprint you make about $350,000. I don't mean to sound negative, but unless you have a breeding prospect - and we don't - that's not a lot of money to win the toughest sprint in the world.

As long as that stretch is, and with all that speed, I think we'll have as good a chance as anyone,

You've got to look at general crime statistics, road safety statistics and all that sort of thing in deciding whether a place is safe or unsafe to visit. And certainly London does come out better in all those mundane but much more relevant statistics.

He was hanging his head, his coat wouldn't turn - it was almost like he was depressed, ... Richard decided he was craving attention, so he moved him to a paddock near their house. His wife and daughter started feeding and playing with him every day. The horse perked right up, and when Richard went to training him, he was better than ever. After his second five-eighths, Richard told me, 'This horse has another Breeders' Cup in him.'
