American turf racing has always been a laughing stock to me! Especially at trips over a Mile/1.2! You get some just above average horses over here going over there and cleaning house! I.e. Debussy (arlington million), Dangerous Midge, Ave (Ex Stoute, Flower Bowl) Red Rocks (MOW, Turf, was a good horse but not great). Well it made Stoute look stupid anyway! For not running and for not anticipating what might have happened, he might as well not have gone! Ground doesn't change firmer rapidly over night! He should have known better, or if he knew the ground was THAT firm he should have pulled out way before and not relied on some poxy rain to come out of nowhere!


Had he withdrew it a week earlier then the ground came up Good he would have looked sillier. The trainer were talking about isn't a wet behind the ears newcomer, he is one of the greatest trainers of all time and has earned the right to treat his horses in exactly the manner he sees fit


stoute one of the greatest of all time think thats a bit extreme he is a great trainer 141 g1s but he is behind a few other trainers in the modern era
look at this fella he is the greatest Mr John Scott

also this mighty gentleman he won over 30 english classics and the oaks 12 times 1000 guineas 9 times derby 7times failed to win the leger
Robert Robson (c1765-1838) was a horse trainer.

The leading racehorse trainer of his time, he raised their status from glorified groom to professional. Based initially at Lewes he spent most of his career at Newmarket and continued to live there after his retirement in 1828, when, as a testimonial, members of the Jockey Club presented him with a piece of plate. He was said to be worth £60,000 at his death.

He jointly holds the record for training winners of the Epsom Derby. His horses have won the race seven times, only two other trainers have achieved this. He had some other successes e.g. his horses won the 2,000 Guineas Stakes six times and he saddled over a dozen winners of the Epsom Oaks. To his contemporaries he was known as "the Emperor of Trainers" and his horses benefited from a gentler regime from that then practised by most stables

He's probably had far fewer runners in overseas G1s compared to UK G1s though, so to have won 45 is pretty impressive!

stoute is a great modern day trainer my point is ther are beter current trainers
without delving into history
he is a great trainer but would he get into top 20 trainers alltime/worldwide not in my opinion but he would not be far off

The vast majority of O'Brien's 'overseas' victories have been in the UK. Stoute's record outside Europe is better than O'Brien's, with wins including the Dubai World Cup, Japan Cup (twice), Breeders' Cup Turf (4 times) etc.
