Kneebone not connected

 

Tony Kneebone wants to get his head out of the sand and read the comments of Phil Purser who has his own website and is not just an employee like Kneebone is.

Phil Purser has unbiased views on what he has written about Black Caviar being well placed and he highlights all the donkeys — yes, donkeys — that Black Caviar has raced against in all her races.

Not one of them are rated in the world’s best guide, Timeform. And Kneebone wrote in the Winning Post ‘who cares if she retires without taking on second rate sprinters (in England)’. I suggest Kneebone buys himself a computer so he can keep in touch with what is happening around the world.

Timeform rate Frankel at 143 and Black Caviar at 135. I can add to that Frankel beat two Group 1 winners last start and the only donkey he sees is Fred, who keeps him company in the paddock
