Message: Connections haven't ever given her a sling, they busttle and fight each other to lead the horse back in after her races and now she hasn't been asked to travel with the horse to the UK.

Message: Hi Q, people are jumping to conclusions over this subject and who knows ??? Maybe her husband doesn't want her to spend so much time away from the kids . These Usbans shouldn't interfere with our Racing stars and it should be grounds to do what my dog does when I upset him. He takes his bone to the beetch next door.

Message: Not worth asking infidel. Probably another reliable source. Like the one that told him Frankel would be retired or the one who told him Black Caviar had been sold for $50,000,000. On and on it goes.

Message: Bad idea IMO to travel the mare without her known and trusted strapper :(
But let's not jump to conclusions about why - it might have nothing at all to do with the owners.
As for slings etc, there is always gossip about the connections of champion horses, usually revolving around what A-holes they are.....sometimes it is true, more often it is not.
Reserve judgement until / unless concrete evidence appears.

Message: If its true I can't imagine its the strappers call. Once in a lifetime chance, why wouldnt you go? Only for a couple of months. If true they probably have someone she is familiar with, but travelling horses is always risky and seems like a bad idea not to take her usual strapper. Regarding scungy owners it is possibly true, but many owners of top horses seem entitled, as if they alone have contributed to the horses ability. Seen it many times before and have seen some shockingly rude and arrogant owners in racing office in the past. Just because you luck out with a good horse doesnt always mean you deserve it!!!!

Message: Seriously Quez, do you have some evidence to support that statement?
Keep in mind that no-one is really "anonymous" on the internet. The internet does not bestow a carte blanche licence to slander people just because you feel like having a b!tch.
Sorry - but it's not very good form at all in my book, to be on here making these claims about BC's owners, unless you are extremely sure of your FACTS.

Message: Doosra, this is the same clown that tried to convince the forum he heard from people in the know that Black Caviar had been sold for $50,000,000. A mare being sold for a price akin to most superstar stallion prospects. That's his standard. Marginally above sludge, but well below the truth. There are several other examples of his lies and bulldust. Do yourself a favour and treat him accordingly, as you have done here.

Message: Quez, you've lied to the forum about the Black Caviar $75 million sale, Frankel being retired, you can't bet because of your job, you don't bet it was a Socialogical experiment, your iPad can't cut and paste without jumbling things up and spelling words wrong, the My Kingdom Of Fyfe tip that you can't reproduce because it didn't happen, etc., etc.

Message: You're an imbo Pukestar, I work alongside a racing personality off tvn who rides a lot of work before tv everyday, he was talking to Moody at the track when he was in Sydney recently attending to his satelitte stable.
Moody told him that Caviar actually costs him money to train, the stress and costs involved outweight anything he earns in fee's, there are at anytime 4 people being paid to constantly monitor the horse, he added that training her is a pain the arse particularly all the media attention, not to mention the fact the owners don't pay training fees, instead they have increased the winning percentage from 5% to 7.5% saying that if he doesn't like it, there are a 1000 trainers who will.
