1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Sitsy and with her with Kate Richie podcast. I went

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: into a nag of a horse with a mate that

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: I grew up with invested in the horse. No, we

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: hardly paid any money for it. He rang me, he's

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: a good mate of mine, Rusty and said, mate, you

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: know there's this trainer. I know, Russell Crowe. It's Russell Crowe.

7
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: So Rusty rings me at my sign on Lusha l

8
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: we're going for the magic millions. Oh my goodness, so amazing.

9
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 1: What is that? What's the definition of a nag? A

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 1: bad horse out? So anyway, I said, hardly costs us anything.

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: My experience, I haven't. I haven't gone into a horse.

12
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: I went into one horse when I was younger with

13
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: a group of mates. And cyndicates are a big thing

14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 1: these days. My advice isn't. They're a complete waste of time.

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: Majority of the horses don't even make it to the track.

16
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: They're always injured and you never get to race Metropolitan.

17
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: But you know what, if you get a win out

18
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: of it, you get a win out. Do you think

19
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: it's more about being able to say, oh I've got

20
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: a share in all? It's such a it's a big Ego,

21
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: I got to watch a horse run. What about remember

22
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: the one where the trainer and you emailed them? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

23
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 1: that was David Harden. Is there any chance you could

24
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: attach a rocket to its us? You know what? Your

25
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: horse will perform so badly, but you'll get a video

26
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: on the Monday going oh ate all its food and

27
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: it pulled up really well. I just wanted to wear

28
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: it anyway. So we've got this horse and it hasn't

29
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 1: raced for a while, it's been crook and it got injured.

30
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: And then we get told by the trainer. During the week,

31
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: I get a phone call from Rusty saying, mate, the

32
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: trainers saying it's looking pretty good this Saturday and it's

33
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: racing and the odds are thirty one dollars and I'm like,

34
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: oh my gosh this and he goes he's so confident.

35
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: We get right. We get a video from the trainer beforehand,

36
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: Kate and he's have a look at it. It's bounding

37
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: around in the stable like it's really excited. My advice

38
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: would be to get on this week. So what's a called? Mate?

39
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: Can you tell us that it's called It's called main bar,

40
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: Main Bar, Main Bar. How do you expell it as

41
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: in the main and it's the breeding, you know how

42
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: they combined two names with the mother and the far

43
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: Sure are you at the back bar and the big

44
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: guarden at the main bar, at the main buch at

45
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 1: the front bar? Is it main bar a place? It

46
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: would be, Yeah, it could be a place. So anyway,

47
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: So Kate, we're excited on Saturday. So this was on Saturday.

48
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 1: Our race was at one twenty two pm. Lenny's the

49
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: long morning waiting for the big win thirty to one.

50
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: We had a little you have a little flutter on it.

51
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: It's at paying thirty one dollars, hoping that you're going to,

52
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: you know, get a little bit of money back. But

53
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: Lenny had his footy presentations on and they started at

54
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: one and I thought to myself, well that's fine because

55
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: there's it's under fives all the way through to under ten's.

56
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: Lenny will be the last. So I'm out. So the

57
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: footy presentation starts outside and I'm around the side of

58
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: this barrier right and I'm on my phone with my

59
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: AirPods in. Dad, it's okay, and are you listening to

60
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 1: the races? At the kid's presentation, I don't. Usually I

61
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: don't ever bet on the horses or anything like that.

62
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: But it was my horse. So I said to bj

63
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: this is my horse and going to win. And I said,

64
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: that's fine. I can come to the presos a little

65
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: bit later. The bark they go for three hours, so

66
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: I'm out the back anyway. Adam Lewis, he's a great man, Adam.

67
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: I'm the horses. The horses are going into the barrier

68
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: and they're just about to race, and Adam comes around

69
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: the corner and goes, hey, by the way, I didn't

70
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: tell you, but the Fitzgerald family are about to receive

71
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: a Volunteer of the of the Year award for your

72
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: services and helping out. And I said, that's great. So

00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: what they're presenting that at the end of the presos.

74
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,680

75
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: right now. They're about to present it. Okay, I'm not joking.

76
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: I've got the last horse goes into the barrier. I

77
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: peer my head over this concrete barrier and I hear

78
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: this and it goes to the Fitzgerald family. Everyone gets

79
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: up and everyone's clapping, and then I hear in my

80
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: AirPods racing with Ryan Fitzgerald, please come to the stage

81
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: to say a couple of words. I then put my

82
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: phone in my pocket with your ear pods. Your airpod's

83
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: still in. I've still got my AirPods in and I'm

84
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: hearing the race multitasking as I'm shaking the hand of

85
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: the President receiving the award, and there was a moment

86
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: where he goes, do you want to say a few words,

87
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: and I'm going phoo. Anyway, It hit the lead just

88
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: three hundred meters to go, and then it died. It

89
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 1: died in a finished date, but we got volunteers and

90
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,359
