The comments on the AHRI site regarding one particular decision were disgusting, repulsive and abhorrent. These participants are doing the Industry more harm than good. Scrolling through the comments , I came across a post directed at me. Apparently , we are to blame for some people’s lack of success because we breed good horses and they can’t compete ! Some are breeders/ trainers who race in the $4,500 / $6,000 races and rarely win. I say to them ‘ enjoy what you do, my horses are my passion ‘ .However , horses trained by Emma Stewart never compete in their space and she cannot be held responsible for their results. It’s the Tall Poppy Syndrome where it’s easy pickings to blame others for your own shortcomings.
