beaker1 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Gigginstown House Stud are set to remove around 60 horses from Willie Mullins following a reported disagreement about the trainer raising his fees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trotter Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Sounds like there's more to it than a flounce over increased training fees. Particularly if the training fees haven't gone up for 10 years as Mullins states O'Leary must reckon his horses are not getting the same focus as the other big owners in the yard, Ricci and Wylie.

BillyHills Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I read somewhere that Rich Ricci's part of the deal to take his horse to Mullins was that he didn't pay monthly fees. A bit like you can have my millions of pounds worth of horses to train and you can win boat loads of Grade 1 races but dont expect me to pay for the food as well! Maybe Gigginstown wanted a similar deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
