I've always had a love for horses since I was really young. When I was 5 years old, the only thing that made me happy was when they'd take me out and give me pony rides.

I have an audience that goes from kids to seventy year olds.

Thoroughbred racing is really my true passion. I'm living my dream.

It's been the work that has carried me and I never wanted to rest on my laurels or go back and do what I done before.

If you put the talent of all my brothers together, they wouldn't add up to the talent that was in my father.

I look fine. I've had no surgery apart from an operation I had decades ago to remove the fat under my eyes. My mum looked 30 when she was 60, so I guess I owe it all to genes and hair dye.

In California, of all places, entertainment is the key to a vibrant economy. If we do not develop young adults capable of entering that world, the financial base of this state is sure to suffer and impact all of us.
