Chapter 134: Good riders are hard to find

From the moment he entered the starting barrier, Wei Da completely entered the situation of the race, although it was only in the narrow starting barrier now, Wei Da felt that he still liked this feeling. Horse racing is basically about two minutes long, and Weida likes the thrill of it.

It is true that he is a multi-millionaire, and many of the rich like to race horses, but they don't necessarily like to be riders; Weida is not a professional athlete who eats on competitive sports, he can sit comfortably in the stands and enjoy the game, not on horseback, with splashes of dirt and unpredictable dangers.

"Chiji, we really need to work hard today, our opponent is not bad." Wei Da patted Chi Ji's neck, he could feel the excitement of Chi Ji now, and the current Chi Ji did seem to be ready; It's a high-level competition and it's definitely not an easy thing to win here.

The starting bell rang and the starting bar opened with a bang; Chi Ji rushed out, and the start was relatively smooth, although he did not run in front, but he did not lag too far behind. Chiji's explosiveness is insufficient, but Wei Da believes that it will soon be the time for Chiji to exert his strength, and the game belonging to Chiji has begun.

While the other horses and riders were trying to squeeze into the inner lane, Wei Da and Chi Ji were in a position close to the outer lane; Chiji's speed is good, he has always maintained enough stability, and he also maintains a fairly strong speed. Perhaps others thought that Weida, the tall half-baked rider, was too anxious after a wrong start, and it was definitely a mistake to start accelerating now, which would have made the No. 5 horse unable to sprint in the second half of the race.

"Catch up. Come on, Chiji! "Other riders always grab the reins in one hand and the whip in the other, but Weida never did. Although he had all the rider's equipment, Weida didn't need a whip. He always habitually likes to pat Chiji's neck and talk loudly to Chiji when he runs, which is how he gets along with Chiji.

Chiji is constantly exerting force, there is no need to worry at all, this is the strength of Chiji, it has a lot of stamina, and its continuous sprinting ability is not found in other horses. For it, it is only a small matter to exert force now, but it can actually perform better; While the other horses were conservatively choosing to build up for the second half of the sprint, Weida and Chiji had already begun to burst out.

The tactics were executed very well. Weida quickly grabbed third place at the first corner, and he continued to stay on the outside rather than squeeze into the inside lane to get a better position despite all the confusion. Chiji bit the horse in front of him very tightly, which also forced the opponents to start early, which is a good thing; Because when the opponents exert their strength too early, they may be a little tired during the sprint phase.

Kyle and Angela have already started to cheer, because they both know Chiji's abilities and characteristics, and now they have entered Chiji's way of playing, and now they both believe that Chiji can win the game, because their opponents will soon be completely crushed by Chiji. Because the other opponents will definitely feel tired.

Chiji's performance is very good, because Chiji's breathing is very stable now, and there is no excessive gasping in the full run, which means that Chiji does not feel the slightest fatigue at all. This also means that it has more strength to sprint.

Chiji did start to exert more force, and he didn't like to fall behind the other horses; It's just that the strength of Wei Da's opponents is also quite good, and they have also begun to exert their strength. It's a complete effort. Chiji's ability to continue sprinting is very good, and its ponytail is completely floating. It's basically parallel to the ground, and it's as fast as a gust of wind. It's even a little faster than the wind!

With a gap of half a body, Wei Da and Chi Ji still won; It's just that Wei Da is a little dissatisfied, because Chiji's advantage could have been greater, this is a narrow victory, the opponent's sprinting ability makes Wei Da feel frightened, and Wei Da can also feel some burden after Chiji's final continuous sprint. Weida's weight limited Chiji's performance, and if Chiji wanted to run faster, then it needed a lighter and more agile rider.

Seeing that Wei Da was a little unhappy, Angela also shook her head; She knew that Weida and Kyle were not very happy with the victory in this game, and she also knew that Weida was a little disappointed. Wei Da is really eager to stand at the top of the competition with Chiji, but the current Chiji has not fully grown, which also means that Chiji is really difficult to afford Wei Da's weight now.

"You still have a chance, I think it'll be able to stand on the starting hurdle with you when he's about six years old." Angela convinces Weida that Chiji is only two years old now, this is only a half-grown foal, it is still in the process of growth, and it is difficult for it to continue to bear Weida's weight.

"I wanted to win more with it, but I was still too optimistic." Wei Da laughed a little, competitive sports are really cruel, even if Chi Ji is talented, but some things are really inevitable; In some low-level races, Chiji can rely on his talent, even with Weida, a lagging rider, to win. But when it comes to those top competitions, Chiji needs a more reliable partner.

"Go find a good rider, I'm not going to continue to be stubborn, it's not good for me, it's not good for Chiji, I know." Although he was a little disappointed in his heart, Wei Da still pretended to be free and easy to say to Kyle.

Patting Chi Ji on the neck, Wei Da felt that he was about to fall behind, although he was going to find a new rider soon, Wei Da felt that he also needed to grasp this last opportunity to cooperate with Chi Ji. He needs to choose Chiji's rider carefully, there are not many opportunities left for Wei Da and Chi Ji to fight side by side, and Wei Da must grasp it.

Kyle was very happy, in fact, he didn't just say to Wei Da once that if Chiji wants to achieve better results, he really needs a good rider; It's just that Weida has been procrastinating, not only Weida's weight, but also Weida's riding skills. The most important thing is that Weida is not a professional rider. He couldn't train with Chiji all the time and go to the races everywhere. This will affect Chiji's performance in the game.

Although he was a little disappointed, Wei Da was still happy that Chiji had won another game; Although the bonuses are minimal. But the most important thing is that it was a qualifying victory, and Chiji was able to go to some of the more advanced competitions. Weida is going to stay in Kentucky now, and he's going to train with Chiji to get more points together.

There are many registered professional riders in the United States, and it is true that many riders can be found now; It's just that Wei Da's requirements are not low, and he has high expectations for Chiji, so if he wants to become Chiji's rider, then he has to show more strength to prove himself.

"This Paul can't do it, I've watched him play. He spared his horse for the sake of victory, which might have ensured that Chiji's results were excellent, but the damage was too great. Wei Da did not hesitate to refuse the first rider, this Paul is not good, he often plays hard in order to promote the potential of the race, Wei Da is not willing to be whipped by the red horse.

Kyle shrugged, Paul is good, but he also thinks that this may not be good, Chiji has a lot of potential. You need to find a rider who knows how to cherish the red horse, not a rider who does not know how to protect the horse for the sake of his own competitive performance, such a rider thinks about his own results, not the health of the horse.

"Todd is good. He is a very experienced rider, I have watched his races, and he is a very mature and steady rider. Kyle pulled out another piece of information. Todd, a veteran rider, has had a very good time.

"No, I can't. There are potential injuries and they are too old. What I needed was a rider who could race with Chiji. It's not an old guy who has just passed the run-in period and is about to retire, no! Wei Da refused again, this Todd's career results are very good, but competitive sports are cruel, the age of the old rider must be considered, Wei Da does not want to change riders for Chiji frequently, which will affect Chiji's performance.

A lot of the time that's like this, it's not just the rider who influences the race, the horse race affects the rider as well; Some of the top riders have fixed horses, and horses have familiar riders. In this way, we can ensure that the horse and the rider form a tacit understanding, when the rider changes frequently, this requires the rider and the horse to run in with each other and get used to some of each other's habits, which will make the horse and the rider have a headache.

So for Wei Da, the old guys, please give way, Wei Da won't let Chi Ji let those old guys have a perfect career curtain call. Wei Da has no intersection with those old riders, what he needs is the best rider for Chiji, a rider who understands Chiji, not Chiji to adapt to the rider.

Kyle also has a headache, he knows that Wei Da values Chiji very much, and he is also very happy that Wei Da cares about Chiji very much; But when the owner chooses the rider, the rider will also choose the horse carefully.

Riders don't have a long career, and they need to choose the best partner when they can ride, so that they can guarantee their results, so that they can get better income and bonuses. Although Chiji has a good talent, Chiji is not famous, and he does not have any pedigree of top racing horses, which will make many riders reject Chiji without hesitation, because they are not necessarily optimistic about Chiji, because Chiji is only a two-year-old horse and cannot participate in top races yet.

This is a two-way choice, although the current Chiji has run out of good results, and from the appearance of the Chiji, it also has good potential, which can indeed attract some riders; However, Chiji is not fully grown, and many of the horses have achieved very good results in the two-year-old race. But when they start to be three-year-olds, which is the real official race, a lot of them are actually unknown, because the horses at this age are not fully mature, which is also very risky.

While training and preparing for the race, Weida and Kyle are now also paying attention to dealing with some riders; Fortunately, there are still a lot of riders in Kentucky, although Wei Da is quite a bit picky now, although the current riders are still not found, but Wei Da believes that there are so many riders in the United States, he must be able to find the most suitable one for Chiji, and he is convinced of this.
