In Australian age, he has been riding a horse since the age of 16. In fact, I had never ridden a horse before, but my father was a jockey in Australia, so I was lucky to get a chance. I loved sports and had athleticism, so I was able to adapt quickly. Above all, riding a horse was so fun and happy. Then I became a job. Last season, I won the honor of winning the GI competition twice, including the South Australian Oaks. I think my hard work, thinking that it is the same whether it is a big competition or a small competition, resulted in good results. I don't feel nervous about big competitions or anything, and I try to keep calm. In Melbourne, I was in the top 10 of the multi-victory rankings.

Secretary-General Kim, who dreams of a "better tomorrow with horses," is expressing his ambition that the Let's Run Foundation will play a big role in expanding practical social contribution projects to provide practical help to the socially vulnerable, rather than donations based on various tangible and intangible assets of the Korean Horse Association while faithfully keeping the purpose of the Let's Run Foundation, which marks its second anniversary, and also meets with Secretary-General Kim Hak-shin, who dreams of a "better tomorrow with horses." The Let's Run Foundation, a representative social contribution foundation of the Korean Horse Association, celebrated its second anniversary on March 18.

Recently, older horses in the Mabang are doing well, but they are choosing to take enough rest when they take a break, which seems to lead to good results. Thank you for always helping me, and I will do my best to repay you with a victory. Hwang In-sung, who majored in law, expressed interest in the conflict of related bills, which is a sharp issue in the horse industry today. Hwang In-sung, a reporter, said, "I want to find out the issues that are holding back the development of the horse industry and highlight them. I will help the government and the Korean horse society policy meet the needs of the field."

In particular, it was acknowledged that Yeongcheon City opened a key riding center next to Unjusan Equestrian Center in 2015 to foster the horse industry, and that the enactment of related laws gave momentum to the development of LetsRun Park Yeongcheon.On the 10th, Kim Joo-soo, the mayor of Uiseong County, received the Grand Prize in the Local Government Administration category at the '2017 Local Government Administration Awards' ceremony held at the National Assembly Members’ Office Building in Yeouido, Seoul.Since taking office in 2014, Governor Kim has been highly praised for establishing the 'Uiseong County Comprehensive Development Plan'

Looking back, we must honestly admit that we are not confident whether we have fulfilled our roles and activities. We are only just beginning to see the seeds of social contribution activities, so expecting a change in public perception from that level of effort is premature. As social contribution activities become a part of everyday life, they should be carried out so that results will naturally follow as they accumulate. We have played no part in blaming those around us.He received more love from his fans than he deserved.

Even now, I feel rewarded when I see so many fans coming to take photos with 'Dangdae Bulpae.'I can't give a clear answer, but I think the members need to lead by example and continue activities that show a good image to fans and the public. It is not right to expect a change in awareness without taking such measures. Since we are not the socially vulnerable, I think it will be completed by looking around and sharing with one another. If we keep this up, Korea’s palm industry could be reborn as a model of a developed nation’s industry.

Dang Dae-bulpae retired and switched to studmills, but he failed due to physiological problems. The indie band also switched to breeding mares and has given birth to their first foals this year. I think they'll debut around the second half of next year, so I'm hoping people might be very surprised. The horses born this year were born with well-proportioned builds. I think 'Indie Band' will also stand out as a stallion in the future. The 'rock band,' the younger sibling of the 'indie band,' also debuted this year as a stallion after retirement and has bred several times.

Just as horses have spirit, when a fine steed is born, it produces unstoppable records. The artist whose anticipation is building is Ryanrok, 3 years old this year, based in Seoul. As a member of 'Triple Nine,' he shares the same paternal and maternal lineage. I’m currently taking a short break, but I’m hopeful that I will stand out significantly starting in the second half of this year. 'Black Sapphire,' who is competing in the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Governor's Cup, shares the same lineage as 'Triple Nine' and 'Lion Rock.

Corporate management consists of shareholders as investors, a CEO as the manager, and the organization that makes it up. The same goes for a horse handler: the handler is the investor shareholder, and the CEO is the trainer. Because he is in charge of directing the overall production and leading the team of officials. Whether Ma-joo merely plays the role of an investor or participates in management may depend on his style. I believe one should faithfully fulfill the role of an investor, but some investors even try to intervene in management.

Various factors may have had an impact. It is important to acknowledge that they were unable to establish a stable foundation for their lives, and there is a shared responsibility to work together to ensure that such misfortunes do not happen again. Since Majoo does not directly employ therapists, there will be limitations in terms of roles, but I believe that by recognizing areas where therapists may not be aware, we can indirectly derive improvement plans and help resolve difficulties.Facing each other is also a business. I believe the concept is the same in both corporate management

From the perspective of horse racing betting fans, they may also think that their act of purchasing betting tickets is not merely spending money but donating a portion of it to a good cause in society. Therefore, the perception of horse racing itself does not turn negative. In our country, because these activities are state-led and most of the proceeds are returned to the national treasury, social welfare activities are not directly visible to the general public. Even those who buy betting tickets perceive that the Korea Racing Authority takes all the profits from horse racing.

Macau horse racing is smaller in scale than ours, but has a deep history. It is one of the countries where horse racing is quite advanced. Systematically, there is little difference from Korean horse racing. However, Macau shows a different culture. Macau's face-to-face culture doesn't seem to be about making a living by earning prize money. More than that, the social purpose through the formation of a community is greater. In addition, a culture of leisure has taken root where people invite acquaintances to enjoy horse racing together and socialize on race days.

Since my donation activities were publicized through various media outlets, I feel that I have been seen as a representative of Korea.Rather than insisting that donations must be made in horse names, I think it is more appropriate to share with the world those who are already somewhat financially stable and have a certain level of income. Famous philanthropists such as the American steel magnate Carnegie and the world-renowned investor Warren Buffett actively donate. They said they believed the wealth they had gained was a blessing from God.

While engaging in these activities, I achieved great success and earned substantial prize money, which led me to feel that I should do something meaningful on the same level as my existing public service work, so I actively participated in donations.Although the horses are said to be owned by the owner, I believe the owner's role is not significant in the actual process of earning the prize money. Of course, selecting and investing in horses is important, but I feel that the complex outcome is actually the result of the contributions made by trainers,

Jung Young-sik, regarded as a leading mazoo in Korea, is famous for conducting donation activities under the names of words such as 'Dangdae Bulpae' and 'Indie Band.' It is not merely a matter of a few donations, but through more than a decade of sustained giving, it is also contributing to establishing the right attitude of humility and practicing the spirit of 'noblesse oblige.' He is also well known to fans and the public as Majo. During the heyday of artists like Jamin,Dangdae Bulpae,and Indie Band,who were making remarkable records and enjoying great success,

Our group uses an Irish source called 'Red Mill,' which I personally like. The teaching style is no different from that of other groups. But I’ll keep training them consistently. Other Korean squads take two weeks off or work in intervals, but our Demon King’s Guard starts training immediately after just 2 to 3 days. By consistently doing training, I feel I’m getting injured less than if I were pushing myself too hard with wet training in short periods before a race. Since trainers Kim Young-kwan, Baek Gwang-yeol, and Ahn Woo-sung are doing well these days, I will work hard too.

However, at LetsRun Park Seoul, the stable is operated at the association level, while at LetsRun Park Busan-Gyeongnam, it is run by individuals, so Busan seems more competitive. Seoul has a small and tight feel to its main roads, whereas Busan’s main roads feel much larger and more linear.There is no special secret. Fortunately, I think I met some wonderful owners and horse trainers. If there is a secret to my success, it seems to be that I met wonderful people who have helped me a lot around me.

Yeonghui Era' and 'Gyeongju’s Bucket' are drawing attention. 'Younghee Era' is a horse that can perform well going forward with a 2-0 record in the third race, and 'Gyeongju’s Bucket Hat' is also a horse that continues to develop, so their futures are promising. Wishimiruk is also on a two-game winning streak in the second team and is now playing in the first team, so there is a chance. Although 'Party Again' and 'Invincible Wonderful' are only three years old, they are already capable enough to be considered first-class, as they are currently on a break.

First of all, I regret the recent horse trainer incident that occurred at LetsRun Park Busan-Gyeongnam. The working hours of speech therapists abroad are also very similar to those in Korea. However, since they receive a portion of the prize money, the treatment of Korean horse trainers is relatively good. While some European countries, such as Ireland, have regulations requiring a portion of prize money to be paid, Korea's treatment is relatively fair.'Champ Line' didn't run in the last race, but he has been consistently performing well in the first division,

In most countries, gambling by predicting race outcomes through betting is enjoyed as a form of leisure. It is also common to see people who visit the racetrack for a weekend outing with their families casually placing bets.It seems that the Korea Racing Authority is doing a good job of strengthening competitiveness right now. For example, they are doing a good job of hosting international competitions like the 'Korea Cup' in Korea or sending Korea's top racehorses on tours to places such as Dubai and Singapore. If we increase contact with international horse racing in this way,

My entire family has deep ties to horses. My grandfather and father worked as trainers in Ireland, and other family members also have horse-related jobs such as trainers and jockeys. I actually started my career as a trainer when I debuted in Malaysia in 2010, but I have been connected with horses and living with them for quite a long time.Korean horse racing is showing a great deal of progress right now. Even compared to three years ago, the horses’ language, the trainers’ techniques, and the jockeys’ riding abilities have improved significantly.

And confident that Korean horse racing could develop, I boldly chose to go to Korea.I don't think there is much difference. If we had to compare, there is a slight difference in the main text. In Europe and Malaysia, there are many races held on turf in addition to those on sandy courses. Korea still does not have a main grass track. If that is the difference.There are also slight differences in the racing style. In Korea, there are many attempts to take the lead early in the race. I try to stand at the front whenever possible.

Trainer Thomas, who made his debut in the domestic circuit in 2015 as the third foreign trainer at LetsRun Park Pukyong, has now entered his third year as a Korean trainer. Three years may seem long or short, but during that time, having seen, heard, and experienced it firsthand on the front lines of Korean horse racing, you have surely gained a solid understanding of the sport. Moreover, his ranking among the top trainers at LetsRun Park Pukyong is also proof that he is already well acquainted with Korean horse racing.
