No Foot No Horse [04:30]
The adage goes, "no foot, no horse". Anyone who has ever worked with horses will tell you why, Here is a look at how a farrier prepares a racehorse to absorb pressure and stay balanced during races.

BARC Winter Series Race 2 from Rockingham, lap 1, wet, greasy and crowded [01:53]
Too much wheelspin off the line after initial movement but not used to these conditions and I think when I start driving a road car next year I might have a better chance :) The right hand side of the grid all get away better as the track was a bit dryer up there but then as you will see its a balance of trying not to hit anyone as I was much quicker arounds turn 2,3,4,5 but with no gaps so have to keep lifting, it was very hard to pass without too much risk when the track is so unpredictable and when I didnt qualify nearer the front. Was a good race in the end and really enjoyed it.

Frankel - 2012 QIPCO Champion Stakes at Ascot [03:09]
Video clip of Frankel's final ever racecourse appearance. Yes, I know I struggled to capture most of the action. Unfortunately I was precariously balanced on a very thin rail (supposedly) to give me a better view. You might catch the part where I fell off! Hope the video gives you some sort of understanding of the atmosphere. As someone says in the video, "That's what it's all about!".
