FROM THE RACING POST: Tom Dascombe, back at his spiritual home in Lambourn with a team of 13 horses for the Flat season after his split with Michael Owen, has described how he was inspired to take up training by a game of golf with Mike de Kock after being put off by a spell as Ralph Beckett’s assistant.
Dascombe was talking to the Racing Post for a major interview in Sunday’s newspaper in which he reflected on his time with Owen at Manor House Stables, how he discovered he had been sacked upon returning from a holiday in Las Vegas and what he sees as a campaign against him by some people who “want to put the boot in” in Lambourn that cost him a high-profile yard in the village.
