A little help ............

Hi guys,

I'm hoping someone here can help me.

I remember watching horse racing in the last few years. There was a horse taking part that had to be accompanied to all races by another horse from his stable. I know that the horse was really successful. Sorry I dont have a lot of info, but I'm hoping that it rings a bell. Can anyone tell me the name of the horse?

Thanks

Would need plenty more info....what country was it racing in?

Ireland/Britain/US?

National Hunt or flat.....surely flat horse.

Can you remember what race you saw it in? Time of year or even just what year and time of year?

Sounds like it could be an American horse. Curlin,Zenyatta?

Thanks for all the responses. It definitely wasn't an American race I was watching. It would have been an Irish or British race. I asked my father there and he suggested "New Approach". I tried googling him there and there was no mention of this other horse though. I remember the other horse had to go out on the course with him before the race and had to do so with all races apparently. Anyway, thanks very much for your help so far, much appreciated.

jim bolger has been doing this the past four years with most of his better horses ,finds it calms them more when they have a pony lead them down to the start -

there was a famous one in england

americans do it all the time

You're not too dim. He's just too clever. There's a difference
