Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

JIM CROWLEY - PROPER GROUNDING
Q: After your accident, what did recovery and looking ahead mean for your career and life beyond riding?
The recovery was long and demanding, but it gave me a new perspective and renewed focus on well-being, family, and future involvement in training or breeding; horsemanship remains at the core of my ambition.
JIM CROWLEY - PROPER GROUNDING
Q: What are your thoughts on Baaeed and what made him stand out as a racehorse?
Baaeed was exceptional because everything about him was easy—technique, temperament, and the ability to quicken twice in a race; he stayed versatile across distances and ground, which set him apart.
JIM CROWLEY - PROPER GROUNDING
Q: Minzaal, you didn't ride him first time out, Dane did at Ascot in July, but a month later, you won a novice on him at Ascot. What were your first impressions?
I rode him in work at home and immediately felt he had an incredible mind for a sprinter; from early stages he showed precocity and mental calm, and he had the potential to develop into something special.
