Dunkeld Cup 2012 by Landserv & Campolina [07:11]
With thanks to Landserv and Campolina, we traveled to the 2012 Dunkeld Cup, in the Grampians, Victoria to experience a day in the Life of a Thoroughbred Horse Trainer. Campolina owned and trained Tayla Lee, a grey mare, ran in race 8 and was accompanied on her trip by an enthusiastic crew from Campolina, including owner Ian Bell & Trainer Andrew Dillon. This story gives a little insight into not only the huge effort and dedication required to successfully campaign a thorough bred but also the excitement of race day from the perspective of those who are directly involved -- not just making a punt from the fence! It's insightful & its exciting -- I hope you enjoy it!!

This time, they were separated by Victory Gallop, who won the Arkansas Derby three weeks ago over Favorite Trick, the 1997 Horse of the Year, who ran eighth today. But they nonetheless gave Baffert, the exuberant trainer from California, the landmark day of his career before a crowd of 143215, the third largest in the Derby's 124 years. One year ago, Baffert won the Derby with Silver Charm, who went on to win the Preakness before losing the Triple Crown by half a length to Touch Gold in the Belmont Stakes. Two years ago, Baffert came within the length of Grindstone's nose of winning the Derby with Cavonnier, which means he nearly swept the race three years in a row, something that no trainer has accomplished. Five other trainers have won the Derby in successive years, most recently D. Wayne Lukas with Thunder Gulch in 1995 and Grindstone in 1996. ''Hello, again,'' Baffert said hoarsely after the race. ''I don't think I'll ever feel the excitement I did over Silver Charm. But ...
