“You can’t buy what I feel now, it’s great,” said Ferguson, 83.

“The difference in football is if you are buying an expensive player, you have time to evaluate him, you are working to determine the type of player you need and what suits your team and does them personal – you cannot do this with a horse, and you cannot look at their characters, so they are a gambling.

“With a football player, it is a long -term matter, they can start at the age of 17 and play until they are 41 years old, such as Ryan Giggs, while with a horse, when they reach 10, 11 and 12, you start asking about the time it will continue.

“Regardless of the time when this horse continues, he did something today we are proud of.”
