01:01:37:00 01:01:39:03
Don't worry about
the other horse,
01:01:39:07 01:01:41:19
or you'll both
get into trouble!
01:01:55:15 01:01:58:10
He trots really beautifully...
Beautifully!
01:01:58:14 01:02:02:02
I don't want to get too carried away.
Lovely long strides.
01:02:05:13 01:02:07:10
He urgently needs to be shod.
01:02:12:10 01:02:15:10
Lovely and long. Beautiful.
I'm very impressed!
01:02:15:14 01:02:18:08
Very nice, I really like him.
01:02:20:15 01:02:23:01
We'll have to see what he can do.
01:02:26:12 01:02:29:17
We were at an auction
and the bidding was on...
01:02:29:21 01:02:32:21
...the horse was being
knocked down for 1,500...
01:02:35:04 01:02:38:06
so I bid for a joke...
01:02:38:10 01:02:39:22
"A buyer!"
01:02:40:19 01:02:41:12
"2,000 once"...
01:02:42:16 01:02:44:07
"No more bids?"
01:02:45:10 01:02:48:02
"Shit!
I'm stuck with this horse!"
01:02:48:06 01:02:50:14
I offered it immediately
to my mate.
01:02:50:18 01:02:53:03
"I don't want a horse like that!"
01:02:53:07 01:02:57:06
"Let's share him then."
But no, he had other plans...
01:02:57:10 01:02:58:12
That's life...
01:02:59:13 01:03:01:14
"Sold for 2,000!
Thank you, sir."
01:03:02:13 01:03:05:17
I signed and paid.
No turning back!
01:03:06:07 01:03:09:13
Overdose has the lead
for the first 300 meters.
01:03:09:18 01:03:12:10
He's galloping in great style!
01:03:12:17 01:03:14:23
It's rare to see such a lead!
01:03:16:10 01:03:18:08
Nothing can stop him!
01:03:21:02 01:03:23:24
300 meters to the finish line
Overdose is the champion,
01:03:24:04 01:03:25:19
...and he is winning!
01:03:27:10 01:03:31:01
This is a superior success,
in great style from Overdose.
01:03:31:22 01:03:35:10
Overdose has got a strong lead!
01:03:35:19 01:03:38:20
A wonder horse wins
the St. László Prize in 2007!
01:04:12:07 01:04:14:16
Everyone felt part of the success.
01:04:15:06 01:04:17:03
Overdose wasn't born by chance...
01:04:17:08 01:04:19:08
He didn't come to us by chance...
01:04:19:19 01:04:22:16
He's not just good,
he's out of this world!
01:04:46:24 01:04:49:10
It's obvious
he should win this race
01:04:49:14 01:04:52:12
but there is a question mark
over his readiness...
01:04:54:16 01:04:56:15
There has been a change of trainer
01:04:56:19 01:04:59:07
he's been taken away
from Sándor Ribárszki...
01:04:59:11 01:05:02:06
I think this will be
the hardest race of Overdose's life.
01:05:02:10 01:05:07:08
It's because of human nature
that the team has been changed,
01:05:07:12 01:05:10:02
but a horse
doesn't understand that.
01:05:12:06 01:05:16:03
A horse doesn't develop such
deep relationships with people...
01:05:16:07 01:05:18:12
Overdose has exceptional ability,
01:05:18:16 01:05:22:03
and hopefully after 12 wins
he'll get the 13th.
01:05:25:22 01:05:28:20
He needs to go...
but build up slowly,
01:05:28:24 01:05:32:01
not start right away but...
01:06:06:11 01:06:09:11
Right... okay.
01:06:10:17 01:06:12:13
This is the...
01:06:12:23 01:06:15:00
Oh God... okay...
01:06:15:04 01:06:17:20
we'll sort that out as well!
01:06:34:16 01:06:39:09
The Hungarian people are starving
for some kind of success,
01:06:39:13 01:06:41:15
for something to look up to.
01:06:43:00 01:06:46:24
Some of us think we are going to
change the world with this horse.
01:06:56:06 01:07:01:13
I didn't get into the steel business
for the love of it.
01:07:01:17 01:07:03:12
It's just business.
01:07:06:23 01:07:14:10
It's just to make money to
support my family and make a living.
01:07:14:14 01:07:18:12
The only difference here
is that this is...
01:07:18:16 01:07:23:06
a kind of... How should I say?
A kind of mission...
01:07:23:10 01:07:25:13
Though Overdose
was born in England,
01:07:25:18 01:07:29:04
a horse is registered
to the country where he's trained.
01:07:29:19 01:07:33:05
That's the national anthem
they play if he wins.
01:07:33:10 01:07:38:12
Whilst Mikóczy is a Slovakian citizen
the horse is trained in Hungary.
01:07:38:16 01:07:41:00
So wherever Overdose wins,
01:07:41:04 01:07:43:21
they play the
Hungarian National Anthem.
01:07:44:04 01:07:46:02
That was a deliberate choice.
01:07:46:06 01:07:49:08
Mikóczy is a truly
patriotic Hungarian.
01:07:50:00 01:07:53:05
Sándor is a fantastic trainer
01:07:53:09 01:07:56:09
and he really has
a nose for horses.
01:07:56:13 01:08:01:16
It's not something you can learn.
You have to have a feel for it...
01:08:01:22 01:08:06:00
He can see the talent in a horse
01:08:06:04 01:08:09:20
and how to bring it out.
That's the secret of his genius.
01:08:09:24 01:08:13:04
A lot of people ruin horses.
I'm the exception.
01:08:13:08 01:08:15:11
It's easy to ruin a horse...
01:08:28:14 01:08:32:14
If I decided to, I could give up
my mission and sell the horse,
01:08:32:18 01:08:36:04
I'd get around
4 million euros.
01:08:38:23 01:08:43:13
But I'd regret it
for the rest of my life.
01:08:43:17 01:08:46:06
Because I'd have sold
my dreams...
01:09:01:03 01:09:02:09
Dosie!
01:09:56:21 01:09:58:02
Please stand back!
01:09:58:08 01:10:00:20
I don't want him to kick!
Sorry!
01:10:18
This 1,300 metres. The second place is possible. Waiting...
01:10:54
If someone is leading for you I think is very good. And at the finish: "Come on!"
01:10:26
But be careful, because race is race.
Mario! The partner from owner...
01:10:34
He‘s my partner.
01:10:29:21 01:10:32:07
Let me introduce you.
01:10:44:07 01:10:47:02
That was the run-up,
the parade.
01:10:47:13 01:10:51:21
And now Overdose
is coming up to the start.
01:11:19:18 01:11:21:15
Now push...
01:11:29:16 01:11:32:12
Try again with the two together...
01:11:32:24 01:11:34:24
Come on, Dosie!
01:11:35:06 01:11:36:09
Watch out!
01:11:36:13 01:11:38:19
Dosie slowly!
01:11:51:18 01:11:53:12
I'm here!
01:12:36:09 01:12:37:23
He lost a shoe...
01:12:38:02 01:12:39:20
And he hates that!
01:12:40:23 01:12:42:19
It was the silicone one...
01:12:43:01 01:12:45:12
That's why he changed his pace.
01:12:45:16 01:12:48:10
But he found his feet
in the last 200 metres...
01:12:48:14 01:12:51:18
But he'll be
touchy tomorrow...
01:13:00:12 01:13:03:23
A nation celebrates Overdose!
01:13:07:03 01:13:11:13
Let's listen to
the National Anthem!
01:13:17:04 01:13:19:00
Today he's missing a shoe...
01:13:19:10 01:13:21:13
And he'll stay like that tomorrow...
01:13:21:17 01:13:23:16
and the day after too.
01:13:23:20 01:13:27:04
Can't we have a drink, folks?
01:13:27:08 01:13:31:17
Boss, any chance
of another drink?
01:14:15:10 01:14:17:08
Sunday night...
01:14:17:12 01:14:20:07
at 8 o'clock...
01:14:20:11 01:14:21:23
the horse...
01:14:26:02 01:14:27:20
Telephone... the vet...
01:14:42:08 01:14:46:09
It would have been much worse
if it had affected the bone
01:14:46:13 01:14:51:04
or a tendon...
But it's still very bad.
01:14:57:16 01:15:01:17
The vet took the
shoes off at 11 pm
01:15:01:21 01:15:07:07
and there were damp patches
where the nails were.
01:15:07:11 01:15:11:12
The whole thing was
rotten or something.
01:15:11:16 01:15:15:10
It must have been
terribly painful...
01:15:16:12 01:15:21:11
Bad shoeing might be the reason.
01:15:21:18 01:15:23:21
I don't like to say it,
01:15:25:21 01:15:30:12
but if we still have problems
in three weeks
01:15:30:16 01:15:33:18
the race at Ascot
will be in jeopardy.
01:15:50:06 01:15:52:09
I don't know...
01:15:52:13 01:15:55:06
I've seen the poor creature...
01:15:55:10 01:15:59:18
I'm no expert,
just a layman.
01:15:59:22 01:16:02:08
Come and sit!
01:16:03:08 01:16:06:08
Someone said we're making
too much fuss of all this...
01:16:06:12 01:16:07:22
But it's really serious.
01:16:08:02 01:16:12:16
Six out of 10 horses die from this
whilst 3 are only good for breeding
01:16:12:20 01:16:15:13
and maybe one
can carry on racing.
01:16:27:20 01:16:30:18
I'd have sold him last year
for all that money
01:16:31:09 01:16:35:10
along with his trainer,
work rider and everything...
01:17:37:21 01:17:39:10
Say something!
01:17:40:03 01:17:42:08
Something clever...
01:17:46:18 01:17:49:21
What is it, baby?
Hey, sweetie?
01:17:50:01 01:17:51:22
Sweetie...
01:18:12
- So yeah...
- We need to try...
01:18:13
And he had, I explained earlier, a subsolar seroma.
01:18:16
A bruise, a big bruise underneath this bone here. A big hole that you could put your finger into.
All the way through his foot, yeah?
01:18:28
And this had blood coming out of it so we had to remove this area.
Then it took six weeks for the sole of the foot to grow acros before we could put a shoe on.
01:18:43
October, yeah? November, December, January.
That means he has another three months where he has two changes of shoes.
01:18:54
Then he starts walking exercise, trotting exercise, and then we keep on going.
01:19:01
When the foot grows down all the way, that should coincide with him then starting to canter.
01:19:07
In March time. In March-April, when the weather's improving, yeah?
But that's as good as we can get.
01:19:17:13 01:19:19:06
All the best!
01:19:20:11 01:19:22:15
Bye!
01:20:11
Low lie the fields of Athenry,
Where once we watched the small free birds fly.
Our love was on the wing,
We had dreams and songs to sing.
01:20:29:08
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry.
Low lie the fields of Athenry,
Where once we watched the small free birds fly.
Our love was on the wing,
01:20:52:05
We had dreams and songs to sing.
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry.
01:21:04:18 01:21:06:13
Stop the car!
01:21:07:06 01:21:08:24
Police!
01:21:09:16 01:21:11:24
Open the door!
01:21:13:22 01:21:16:09
Down on the ground!
01:21:23:08 01:21:28:04
Commandos have arrested
the owner of Overdose in Romania...
01:21:28:24 01:21:33:09
The police suspect
that the factory owner
01:21:33:13 01:21:36:05
was attempting to smuggle out
01:21:36:09 01:21:39:05
the meat-processing
equipment
01:21:39:09 01:21:43:09
while a plea for
bankruptcy was under way.
01:22:21:09 01:22:24:07
I still can't reach him.
01:22:24:11 01:22:27:12
He didn't come to the meeting...
01:22:27:16 01:22:30:20
where we were supposed to
talk about Overdose...
01:22:40:13 01:22:46:01
The winner was Father's Dream
trained by Sándor Ribárszki...
01:22:47:05 01:22:49:22
I've got one more horse
to race, then finito...
01:22:50:04 01:22:56:17
Congratulations to the winners
Gary Hind and Sándor Ribárszki
01:22:56:21 01:23:00:06
the stars of the race.
01:23:07:20 01:23:12:11
- Can we talk later?
- Bye!
01:23:18:21 01:23:23:10
The trainer's announced
he's moving to Germany.
01:23:23:14 01:23:25:07
Sándor stressed that
01:23:25:11 01:23:27:20
it's not due to
the Mikóczy scandal.
01:23:28:06 01:23:31:02
We've achieved everything
we can in Hungary:
01:23:31:06 01:23:33:07
five derbies,
eight championships.
01:23:33:11 01:23:36:20
Germany will be a new challenge.
01:23:38:22 01:23:41:12
Italian Hotel, you know?
01:23:43:09 01:23:47:17
Where the track is,
and somewhere there in a nice street.
01:23:55:11 01:23:57:09
Now it's good.
01:23:57:14 01:24:00:10
Between his ear
and his chin...
01:24:23:24 01:24:25:09
Sooty!
01:24:34:10 01:24:36:09
Let's go!
01:25:33:20 01:25:38:04
Businessmen have come together to
keep Overdose in Hungarian colours.
01:25:38:08 01:25:39:12
Five companies
01:25:39:16 01:25:42:15
have paid half the horse's value
- 200 million forints.
01:25:42:19 01:25:44:02
We've signed a contract
01:25:45:09 01:25:49:09
in which 50% of the horse
now belongs to the five companies.
01:25:50:07 01:25:53:09
We've bought half a horse.
01:25:53:22 01:25:57:01
The horse may become
a national treasure... A symbol.
01:26:00:12 01:26:04:00
Our nation has suffered
many defeats in the past
01:26:04:04 01:26:07:06
so if there is even the slightest
chance of success,
01:26:07:10 01:26:09:07
everyone wants to be a part of it.
01:26:09:11 01:26:11:02
People are happy to help.
01:26:24:15 01:26:25:22
I'm István Pécsi,
01:26:26:01 01:26:27:14
I'm a racing commentator.
01:26:27:18 01:26:29:02
Great news:
01:26:29:06 01:26:32:22
Overdose is back in Hungary!
01:26:33:15 01:26:35:13
Overdose has returned
01:26:36:07 01:26:39:22
after 5 months of
treatment abroad.
01:26:40:15 01:26:43:15
It was kept secret
to keep the press away.
01:27:00:09 01:27:01:24
You see, the facts...
01:27:02:05 01:27:04:08
speak for themselves...
01:27:08:05 01:27:14:06
The circumstances surrounding
our arrest say it all.
01:27:14:10 01:27:19:05
I don't want to say more
or start making accusations.
01:27:26:02 01:27:28:11
I kindly ask you
01:27:28:15 01:27:32:21
to quote Zoltán Mikóczy
accurately
01:27:33:00 01:27:36:18
because this affair
has spread over three countries
01:27:37:14 01:27:42:13
and incorrect statements could
lead to serious misunderstandings.
01:27:45:12 01:27:48:17
We are going to appeal.
01:27:48:21 01:27:52:02
My case is still
running in Romania
01:27:52:06 01:27:56:04
and is now at the
highest court in Bucharest.
01:27:57:00 01:28:04:14
The case against me could
basically disrupt our attempts
01:28:04:23 01:28:09:12
to make a whole nation
proud of Overdose.
01:28:09:16 01:28:15:24
So let's not
carry on talking about this.
01:28:16:03 01:28:20:08
I came home because
Overdose had problems...
01:28:20:12 01:28:22:19
with his foot.
01:28:22:23 01:28:25:23
I also want to talk
to the owner.
01:28:26:06 01:28:30:03
We'll make a decision tomorrow.
01:28:30:07 01:28:32:12
The most important thing
is Overdose.
01:28:33:14 01:28:36:23
If he can't come to Germany
I'll be very sad...
01:28:39:15 01:28:42:16
So, do you think
he should join you there?
01:28:42:20 01:28:45:23
If I'm there,
then yes, he should.
01:28:46:03 01:28:48:07
The setup is excellent there...
01:28:53:07 01:28:56:15
We would like Overdose
to train here
01:28:59:00 01:29:01:24
which is why we've
completely renovated the stables.
01:29:02:04 01:29:07:17
We are doing all we can to help
Overdose train here in Hungary,
01:29:08:00 01:29:10:23
with a new trainer if necessary,
01:29:11:02 01:29:15:11
so his Hungarian nationality
won't be questioned.
01:29:15:16 01:29:20:05
He's Hungarian because he trains
here with Hungarians.
01:29:22:15 01:29:26:17
Would you return to Hungary to
keep Overdose in Hungarian colours?
01:29:26:21 01:29:32:05
The answer to that...
I'm afraid, is no.
01:29:32:09 01:29:35:01
If I did stay here,
and there's a new trainer
01:29:35:05 01:29:38:06
who isn't quite right
for the horse,
01:29:38:10 01:29:42:04
I'm sick of
fighting battles.
01:29:42:09 01:29:46:13
If the old team can't
stay together, I'm off.
01:29:46:17 01:29:48:14
A new trainer
can do what he likes,
01:29:48:18 01:29:51:00
but I won't stand by
and watch.
01:30:04:12 01:30:07:18
Sándor has to decide
01:30:08:04 01:30:11:07
if he's going to leave
01:30:11:12 01:30:15:07
or stay here
and train Overdose.
01:30:16:24 01:30:18:14
Look...
01:30:21:05 01:30:25:17
I'm definitely
counting on Sándor...
01:30:25:21 01:30:28:18
- As his trainer.
- As his trainer.
01:30:28:22 01:30:31:12
If Sándor goes to Germany,
01:30:31:16 01:30:33:19
I'm still counting on him,
01:30:33:23 01:30:38:06
but Overdose will have to be assigned
to a trainer registered in Hungary.
01:30:38:11 01:30:42:01
A trainer can't be registered
in two countries.
01:30:45:17 01:30:50:01
Everybody says that
Overdose can only make a comeback...
01:30:50:05 01:30:55:14
if he is surrounded by
his usual team, you and Barbie.
01:30:55:18 01:31:00:20
If it can only be solved
by taking the horse to Germany...
01:31:00:24 01:31:03:18
he'll be recuperating there.
01:31:03:22 01:31:05:20
We'll find the right solution.
01:31:30:13 01:31:32:13
Please move back...
01:31:32:17 01:31:34:20
Don't come closer.
01:32:12:06 01:32:14:24
It was a good idea
to take it off...
01:32:15:22 01:32:19:22
I've been wanting
to take it off for ages.
01:32:20:07 01:32:23:05
I wanted to take it off
five days ago.
01:32:25:02 01:32:29:15
Even if there weren't any pus,
it still should have been...
01:32:35:21 01:32:39:19
His shoe is the only thing
we can change.
01:32:39:23 01:32:43:05
We can't change his ear
or his tail...
01:32:44:03 01:32:47:00
I've been checking him
afternoon and evening,
01:32:47:04 01:32:49:07
and he's always resting
his left leg.
01:32:52:01 01:32:55:12
I really don't know
what to think...
01:33:21:09 01:33:23:00
As it goes...
01:33:40:01 01:33:43:14
I still say it's too soon.
01:33:43:18 01:33:48:09
They still reckon
he's ready.
01:33:48:13 01:33:51:17
No one bloody recognises
that it's too early...
01:33:51:22 01:33:54:11
Even if I went out
on him bareback,
01:33:54:15 01:33:57:05
he'd still get lame.
01:33:59:06 01:34:01:00
It's raining again!
01:34:04:00 01:34:06:02
I've lost my appetite...
01:34:06:06 01:34:08:24
I haven't eaten well
for two years.
01:34:09:15 01:34:12:18
I've lost 10 kg.
01:34:17:22 01:34:20:07
I force myself to eat...
01:34:20:11 01:34:22:11
because I feel that
01:34:22:15 01:34:25:21
my stomach is going to implode.
01:34:26:10 01:34:30:05
I think it's nerves.
01:34:58:05 01:35:00:23
Being a creature of instinct,
01:35:01:02 01:35:07:02
this constant change of environment
drives him crazy.
01:35:07:22 01:35:10:12
There's no way
he'll get better like that.
01:35:14:04 01:35:17:02
Hoof rot
is very serious.
01:35:17:06 01:35:23:01
In my experience,
hardly any horse survives it.
01:35:29
He have now power. Want to go.
01:35:47:19 01:35:52:00
He looks great.
His muscles are improving.
01:35:52:10 01:35:54:01
The best thing for him now
01:35:54:05 01:35:57:12
is to take it easy,
one step at a time.
01:35:58:00 01:36:01:22
It doesn't matter what he wins,
as long as he wins something.
01:36:02:01 01:36:04:12
Who knows what mindset
he'll be in?
01:36:04:19 01:36:07:04
His mental state needs
to be sorted out.
01:36:07:24 01:36:11:09
Even a minor race
can be tricky.
01:36:12:14 01:36:16:04
He needs an easy run...
01:36:16:14 01:36:22:19
Of course. He doesn't need
a big race, we just want him to win.
01:36:23:02 01:36:26:12
He's got more chance to win
in a minor race.
01:36:38:11 01:36:41:03
Should I lie?
01:36:41:07 01:36:45:06
He's up one day,
down the next.
01:36:46:02 01:36:49:21
You don't know whether
to let him go or not...
01:36:50:09 01:36:54:22
If he gets going, he'll try to
fly like a healthy horse,
01:36:55:03 01:36:56:24
but he's not healthy right now.
01:37:05:11 01:37:07:19
You've come from Germany.
01:37:07:23 01:37:09:14
Welcome to the studio.
01:37:09:18 01:37:12:22
Overdose was supposed
to have a race.
01:37:13:02 01:37:15:06
That's what we were told...
01:37:15:10 01:37:19:16
Yes, but his trainer said
01:37:19:20 01:37:23:18
he doesn't like
the way he's moving.
01:37:23:22 01:37:26:14
- Will he race again?
- Of course!
01:37:26:18 01:37:28:20
Will Overdose
ever run again?
01:37:28:24 01:37:30:22
He'll not only run,
01:37:31:01 01:37:33:21
but he'll win major races.
01:37:35:20 01:37:38:22
- I can't find my paper.
- It's on the fridge...
01:37:41:10 01:37:45:09
He gets excited and he'll just go
because he's Overdose...
01:37:45:13 01:37:49:17
but you mustn't let him go...
it'll do him more harm.
01:37:56:12 01:37:59:17
Sándor Ribárszki hasn't got
a Hungarian trainer's permit,
01:38:00:14 01:38:03:10
so he's no longer
registered in Hungary.
01:38:03:14 01:38:06:06
So he can't be Overdose's
trainer anymore.
01:38:06:10 01:38:08:19
That relationship is over.
01:38:10:09 01:38:12:10
It's a national affair now.
01:38:12:14 01:38:15:16
We should stop
messing about!
01:38:18:15 01:38:21:00
You can't cheat
the new owners...
01:38:26:10 01:38:28:09
Having pronounced Overdose
01:38:28:19 01:38:32:16
a symbol of the Hungarian
financial recovery,
01:38:33:02 01:38:35:22
when they decided
to support him,
01:38:36:03 01:38:38:14
it would be very embarrassing
01:38:38:23 01:38:41:10
if he lost his
Hungarian citizenship.
01:38:41:20 01:38:45:02
And if he's abroad
for more than 90 days
01:38:45:06 01:38:47:01
that will happen automatically.
01:38:47:06 01:38:50:24
That's why Zoltán Mikóczy brought
Josef Rosival to Hungary.
01:38:51:03 01:38:53:20
He has a Hungarian
trainer's permit.
01:38:54:08 01:38:55:17
And from now
01:38:56:12 01:38:59:21
Overdose is being
trained by Josef Rosival.
01:39:11:04 01:39:13:19
- You okay?
- We're here with Dosie.
01:39:13:23 01:39:17:04
I haven't been home
for four months.
01:39:17:08 01:39:21:18
We're here with Dosie
because of some bloody paperwork...
01:39:21:22 01:39:23:20
I'm fine thanks.
01:39:24:09 01:39:27:07
And bring me a stiff drink,
a large one!
01:39:27:11 01:39:31:03
They said you don't drink...
01:39:32:24 01:39:35:19
You should listen to me,
not to gossip...
01:39:40:14 01:39:42:14
I've been homesick
01:39:42:18 01:39:46:10
and there weren't as many
horses as we'd hoped.
01:39:46:17 01:39:48:23
I was homesick...
01:39:49:10 01:39:51:17
We gave it a try...
01:39:52:06 01:39:54:22
The only problem was
I had 70 horses here
01:39:55:07 01:39:57:21
and now I've only
got my own and Dosie....
01:40:01:08 01:40:06:16
Sándor's mental state
and behaviour doesn't convince me...
01:40:06:21 01:40:10:12
I can't trust him to
run a complete stable,
01:40:11:04 01:40:14:11
but he does have
a genius for training.
01:40:16:20 01:40:19:13
Overdose will now be trained
01:40:19:17 01:40:24:13
by Rosival under Ribárszki's
direction, and they've agreed to this.
01:40:25:20 01:40:29:13
We'll train the horse
as Ribárszki recommends.
01:40:32:07 01:40:36:07
I had a dispute with Ribárszki,
but nothing major.
01:40:40:03 01:40:44:04
The only thing was
Sanyi didn't show up for training
01:40:44:09 01:40:48:04
and I didn't either.
Only Mikóczy went.
01:40:48:08 01:40:53:00
It's not as if I want
to take Overdose away
01:40:53:04 01:40:56:21
from my friend
Sándor Ribárszki.
01:40:59:09 01:41:04:12
We just didn't clear the air
like we should have...
01:41:04:23 01:41:07:00
I reckon...
01:41:08:09 01:41:14:12
a good trainer can make
last minute changes to his plans.
01:41:18:06 01:41:22:06
Even with a healthy horse...
01:41:22:10 01:41:24:23
I can make late changes.
01:41:25:02 01:41:27:08
My brain, my eyes, my senses...
01:41:27:12 01:41:30:00
tell me to make a change
01:41:30:04 01:41:32:14
at the last minute.
01:41:32:18 01:41:34:06
Not because I'm an idiot...
01:41:34:10 01:41:37:19
but... I can't explain it.
01:41:37:23 01:41:40:08
I don't know what it is!
01:41:40:12 01:41:41:05
That's all...
01:41:41:19 01:41:45:14
Sándor Ribárszki wanted
to go to Germany.
01:41:45:18 01:41:47:24
If he hadn't gone to Germany,
01:41:48:03 01:41:50:03
he would be here, not me,
01:41:50:08 01:41:53:03
and he would still
be the king...
01:41:53:15 01:41:55:17
I don't want to
be a part of this...
01:41:57:14 01:42:01:05
either they stop this nonsense
or mess him up
01:42:01:09 01:42:05:00
and make him lame...
01:42:05:04 01:42:08:07
They can't see how
he's really moving.
01:42:08:11 01:42:12:03
Of course,
we have to have plans
01:42:12:07 01:42:15:10
but when a horse
is looking poorly,
01:42:15:14 01:42:17:00
how can they shout:
01:42:17:04 01:42:19:10
"Why won't that bitch
let him go?"
01:42:19:15 01:42:22:04
Anyway half an hour later
Overdose was lame
01:42:22:08 01:42:25:13
and only ran half
the distance they'd wanted.
01:42:29:24 01:42:32:23
Everything is based on trust...
01:42:35:00 01:42:38:08
And I think I have trusted
Sándor plenty of times.
01:42:42:03 01:42:46:13
I have proved it by
not wanting to change things.
01:42:52:13 01:42:58:04
But the information that
has come to light recently
01:43:00:00 01:43:05:18
has made me feel that
I've been taken for a fool.
01:43:45:05 01:43:47:16
Mikóczy doesn't
need my defend,
01:43:48:10 01:43:50:08
because he really
loves that horse.
01:43:51:14 01:43:55:07
But he is under
so much pressure...
01:43:55:22 01:43:57:03
I guess.
01:44:11:13 01:44:14:23
Walk down from there?!
With a horse like that?!
01:44:22:11 01:44:24:23
Canter up the hill,
stop there
01:44:25:02 01:44:28:02
and then walk down
1,200 metres...
01:44:28:06 01:44:32:09
He'll think we're
going to let him run.
01:44:32:19 01:44:33:21
He gets excited.
01:44:34:00 01:44:37:03
He won't care that his leg hurts,
he'll gallop anyway.
01:44:37:12 01:44:40:18
And the horse will be
hurt again.
01:44:44:09 01:44:47:21
I'll get on you if you want...
01:44:51:03 01:44:52:23
Come on, hey!
01:44:59:18 01:45:02:21
Don't look, just get up!
01:45:03:04 01:45:04:24
Come on!
01:45:05:03 01:45:07:06
He doesn't want to get up.
01:45:12:09 01:45:14:23
Stop messing about!
01:45:15:02 01:45:17:06
Bugger off!
01:45:17:22 01:45:19:19
Get up!
01:45:22:08 01:45:23:15
At last!
01:45:23:21 01:45:24:24
Thanks a lot!
01:45:27:03 01:45:29:00
You're really kind!
01:45:32:20 01:45:38:21
...but he really needs two
or three more days to be sure.
01:45:39:04 01:45:41:06
Barbie is my employee,
01:45:41:13 01:45:44:20
but if she feels she doesn't
want to stay with the horse,
01:45:45:12 01:45:48:03
we'll just have to find
another work rider.
01:45:49:06 01:45:52:08
We have to remember
that it wasn't Sándor Ribárszki
01:45:52:21 01:45:56:00
who made Overdose into
what he is now
01:45:56:04 01:45:59:16
and it wasn't Barbie either.
Overdose made himself!
01:46:00:12 01:46:03:16
On the contrary,
thanks to Overdose
01:46:04:06 01:46:07:03
Barbie and Ribarszki have
made names for themselves.
01:46:07:07 01:46:09:15
They can either
recognise that or not.
01:46:09:19 01:46:13:00
If not, we'll carry on
with other people.
01:46:30:18 01:46:31:21
Okay?
01:46:37:06 01:46:40:16
Last week, he would
have spat the bit out.
01:46:45:06 01:46:47:08
When coming up the hill...
01:47:02:02 01:47:05:08
You have half an
hour more to decide.
01:47:06:16 01:47:10:19
How much trouble would it
cause if we backed out?
01:47:10:23 01:47:14:06
None, it's only the horse
that matters.
01:47:17:15 01:47:22:01
Last year Ribárszki
got the horse fighting fit.
01:47:23:00 01:47:25:04
Now he's at death's door.
01:47:25:08 01:47:28:03
We couldn't cancel
the press conference.
01:47:28:07 01:47:30:18
We have to tell them
what we're going to do.
01:47:34:16 01:47:36:18
I don't know what to do...
01:47:36:24 01:47:39:18
I might have made
the biggest mistake of my life
01:47:39:22 01:47:44:09
when I left these
great horses and owners,
01:47:44:13 01:47:47:09
and went into the
complete unknown
01:47:47:13 01:47:49:11
when I never really wanted to
01:47:49:15 01:47:51:22
and I had no feeling for it.
01:47:52:01 01:47:55:01
- Why did you go?
- Because of the family...
01:47:55:05 01:47:59:07
I hoped things would
work out better in a new place.
01:47:59:11 01:48:04:12
I went to Germany
because of issues with my wife.
01:48:04:16 01:48:06:16
To start a new life...
01:48:08:08 01:48:10:03
Hi.
01:48:10:11 01:48:12:00
Hello.
01:48:12:04 01:48:14:12
Long time no see...
01:48:14:16 01:48:17:06
- Are you happy to stay here?
- Sure...
01:48:17:10 01:48:21:15
Don't rush off...
We were just talking...
01:48:21:19 01:48:24:18
I went to see
if something would happen...
01:48:25:24 01:48:27:13
Can you lend me some cash?
01:48:28:20 01:48:32:03
The horse is preparing
for the race...
01:48:34:12 01:48:38:02
We hope he'll be
in better form...
01:48:38:06 01:48:41:10
and it will be enough
for this race.
01:48:41:14 01:48:47:09
The other 10 owners
and the trainers think
01:48:47:13 01:48:52:11
that Overdose might
be beaten this time
01:48:53:07 01:48:57:20
but we have faith
in his skill.
01:48:59:14 01:49:01:17
Bye!
01:49:04:09 01:49:06:19
I'd like to get
the white bridle for Dosie,
01:49:08:04 01:49:10:24
what he always used to wear...
01:49:11:03 01:49:13:00
For luck's sake.
01:49:13:04 01:49:14:13
Can we use that?
01:49:14:19 01:49:18:00
I'll give it to you - for luck...
01:49:18:04 01:49:20:13
He always had the white one...
01:49:21:04 01:49:23:12
Have a chat with Barbie,
01:49:23:16 01:49:26:14
see if she would
lead Dosie round.
01:49:26:22 01:49:30:16
Would it be awkward
now that she's gone?
01:49:30:20 01:49:32:04
She's gone...
So what?
01:49:33:14 01:49:38:01
I'll bring the bridle and
leave it in the horsebox.
01:49:38:10 01:49:42:00
- I called Barbie...
- She didn't pick it up?
01:49:42:04 01:49:45:23
She must have been riding...
01:49:47:11 01:49:49:22
Mikóczy will call you...
01:49:51:20 01:49:55:16
OK, take the call.
We'll discuss it all at home...
01:49:56:08 01:50:00:24
He'd like you
to lead Dosie round if he runs...
01:50:05:16 01:50:08:22
He'll call you
and you tell him what you like...
01:50:09:21 01:50:11:10
He was normal...
01:50:12:22 01:50:15:16
We can go together...
01:50:16:23 01:50:19:16
What if we both
take him round?
01:50:19:20 01:50:22:05
I'll take the right,
you take the left...
01:50:22:18 01:50:24:22
I don't know, does it matter?
01:50:29:01 01:50:32:05
I don't want to see
that horse anymore!
01:50:32:09 01:50:33:15
Okay... bye.
01:50:34:04 01:50:35:08
She's crying.
01:50:35:12 01:50:38:10
She says Rosival's boy
can lead him round...
01:50:38:16 01:50:40:00
She doesn't want to...
01:50:40:17 01:50:43:15
She doesn't want to see
the horse ever again!
01:50:44:13 01:50:48:15
She doesn't want
to lead a horse to his death,
01:50:49:03 01:50:51:11
to put it bluntly.
01:50:55:15 01:50:57:22
I wouldn't let him run yet...
01:50:58:18 01:51:01:05
He might never race again...
01:51:01:24 01:51:05:12
It's still better to finish
his career with 12 wins
01:51:05:16 01:51:08:03
than end with a cock-up.
01:51:51:20 01:51:54:00
Reporters are gathered
at the railings
01:51:55:05 01:51:59:01
to see if Overdose will run
01:51:59:13 01:52:01:16
after 15 months' absence.
01:52:02:09 01:52:04:18
We would like to
ask Zoltán Mikóczy:
01:52:05:03 01:52:08:18
will Overdose run
in Bratislava today?
01:52:09:11 01:52:13:14
I hope so, and I hope he'll
match his earlier form
01:52:13:18 01:52:18:11
and pick up where
he left off 15 months ago.
01:52:20:04 01:52:22:21
So, what kind of
condition is Overdose in,
01:52:23:00 01:52:26:22
and will he live up
to his past successes?
01:52:44:06 01:52:46:21
- Are you nervous?
- A bit.
01:52:55:09 01:52:57:19
- Good luck!
- Thanks.
01:53:03:01 01:53:08:15
We didn't tell them to put a
hood on him if he's too excited.
01:53:09:18 01:53:10:21
He's not.
01:53:14:11 01:53:16:11
They're at the starting gate...
01:53:17:15 01:53:18:16
A few minutes...
01:53:34:18 01:53:36:24
Put a hood on him!
01:53:40:00 01:53:41:12
Where's Overdose?
01:53:44:05 01:53:46:00
He's got it on...
01:53:47:13 01:53:49:08
Come on, sweetie, no...
01:53:49:14 01:53:52:06
You know you're
going to a good place...
01:53:53:13 01:53:55:10
Here's Overdose.
01:53:55:21 01:53:58:11
He doesn't want to
enter the gate.
01:53:58:15 01:54:01:18
But we must remember that
he hasn't run for 15 months.
01:54:01:22 01:54:04:09
This is obviously a handicap,
01:54:04:13 01:54:06:20
even if he is such an
exceptional horse.
01:54:07:16 01:54:09:12
It's okay, sweetie...
01:54:15:13 01:54:17:01
Dosie's in front...
01:54:20:23 01:54:23:06
Come on, Dosie!
01:54:23:18 01:54:25:05
Come on!
01:54:30:07 01:54:32:24
Dosie has an easy lead...
01:54:33:06 01:54:35:08
Gunár is behind him...
01:54:35:22 01:54:38:06
He'll win easily...
If all goes well...
01:54:49:17 01:54:53:03
We've done it, Zoli!
01:54:54:16 01:54:55:10
No...
01:54:55:14 01:54:56:15
We've done it!
01:54:57:09 01:54:59:20
What's happened?
01:55:16:03 01:55:18:13
He's won!
01:55:19:05 01:55:21:16
We've done it!
01:55:23:12 01:55:26:08
We've done it!
01:56:51:05 01:56:53:00
...the vet from New Zealand,
01:56:53:10 01:56:54:16
the blacksmith.
01:56:54:22 01:56:56:00
Minister...
01:57:05:18 01:57:07:13
The new trainer...
01:57:25:19 01:57:28:13
I've started to prepare him
for Baden-Baden.
01:57:28:17 01:57:30:21
And if he runs well today,
01:57:31:12 01:57:34:17
like I hope he will,
01:57:36:23 01:57:39:22
then it'll be good practice
for the Baden-Baden race...
01:57:40:04 01:57:43:13
But I'm keeping quiet
about the details of my plans.
01:58:34:03 01:58:37:18
The winner is
Overdose with Gary Hind.
01:58:39:00 01:58:41:01
Josef Rosival is his trainer.
01:58:47
The race that he won in Slovakia after 15 months, that break was satisfactory but no more.
It didn't tell anybody that he was a superstar again so, for sure, they needed to go and have another race.
This run today is, a) to show the people, the locals, and b) to build up his form for his next main start.
Baden-Baden will be a different story again.
02:00:57:21 02:00:59:16
Break a leg! Good luck!
02:01:01
Stronger. He looks stronger.
02:01:09:00 02:01:10:23
Should I unbutton it?
02:01:11:23 02:01:14:00
Has my belly grown?
02:02:08:10 02:02:11:07
Can I open it now?
02:02:16:21 02:02:18:22
Relax...
02:03:06:10 02:03:09:01
Overdose is pulling back again...
02:03:10:16 02:03:12:07
He's increasing the pressure.
02:03:16:07 02:03:18:10
Now the jockey's
out of the saddle...
02:03:19:24 02:03:21:07
Christophe Soumillon,
02:03:22:20 02:03:24:20
the world-class Belgian jockey,
02:03:25:09 02:03:27:24
who was champion in France.
02:03:35:03 02:03:37:11
I don't want to say
02:03:37:19 02:03:39:12
it's a bad omen...
02:03:41:04 02:03:44:06
But it's not good
to watch it at all.
02:03:44:17 02:03:47:08
Overdose is still playing up...
02:03:49:16 02:03:53:01
He doesn't want
to go into the stalls...
02:03:56:10 02:03:59:15
Don't do this to us, boy.
02:04:00:20 02:04:02:11
Everyone is trying
02:04:02:16 02:04:06:16
but the horse is resisting
and wasting a lot of energy.
02:04:20:09 02:04:22:19
They've done it!
02:04:22:23 02:04:25:14
Overdose has taken his position.
02:04:36:07 02:04:40:17
Overdose has a slight jostle
with Gilt Edge Girl at the start
02:04:41:00 02:04:42:19
but we're past that.
02:04:42:23 02:04:48:04
Fenella Rose has passed Overdose
with Contat at the side.
02:04:51:06 02:04:54:16
Overdose is there
leading in front of Fenella Rose.
02:04:54:20 02:04:56:19
Then comes Rock Jock...
02:05:00:17 02:05:03:08
Overdose is leading
in the middle of the track,
02:05:03:12 02:05:05:15
next to him Rock Jock,
02:05:05:20 02:05:09:06
Gilt Edge Girl is leaving
Overdose behind.
02:05:12:22 02:05:15:03
Contat is flying
up the side.
02:05:20:06 02:05:23:11
Amigo Fritz and Contat...
02:05:25:15 02:05:29:00
Amigo Fritz passes Contat
and then comes Gilt Edge Girl.
02:05:29:04 02:05:33:19
Then comes Mood Music,
Walero, Rock Jock,
02:05:33:23 02:05:38:06
and then Overdose
in seventh or eighth...
02:05:38:10 02:05:41:14
beaten 300 metres
from the winning post.
02:05:42:15 02:05:47:08
We may have to learn to live
with this from now on...
02:09:42:03 02:09:46:20
The excellent mare Quisiana
the winner in 2012
02:09:46:24 02:09:49:00
with Zdenko Smida in the saddle.
02:09:49:07 02:09:53:01
We congratulate
her trainer Sándor Ribárszki,
02:09:53:09 02:09:56:03
and to her owner Pavel Vigas.
