FORTUNATELY SOMETHING GOOD IN MARKOPOULO BY F.E.E.
MODERNIZATION EFFORT
THE START OF fitness
He learned that Vice F.E.E. John Mytilineos with Takis Kalaitzis make this time a massive effort to modernize the operation of the Start and day of racing and sport days.
Without exaggeration impressed with the fact and after publicly congratulate the players of both races and I will add a few words on this enormous task undertaken by the F.E.E.
In Greece when the war started the Horse was given the start to the ropes.
Then, of course, the reliability of the races present in nadir, because many times the left aoutsainter flain start and the favorite to start came too late.
When, therefore, America discovered boxes starting in Greece came immediately, 2-3 years before the England-France-Ireland.
Then came an American and on the other to teach in Greece on the other hand, riders, coaches, if you do not remember I called Ntafin.
Among then, the American students on the other hand, was Takis Kalaitzis then rider.
The U.S., therefore, on the other, and then on the other the best Greek of all times, the late General Mexas taught the following:
* The horse, if possible every day, should visit the Start, in order to meet and pass through the boxes, if possible, without any pressure, without any assistance every day.
* The day on the other races where the horses participating in any races, should consider a series of entry and the entry of any horse in the boxes.
We should study how to help each horse from the auxiliaries.
Notwithstanding the above point out that on the other it does not give the OK Start to open if when the coaching box, not the flying horse! at least two steps.
Even the starting point was that book written each day:
I. The passage of a horse''pass.''
II The beginning of the horse through the boxes with an opening of the box by hand.
III The start of regular horse.
IV. The start of regular horse and accompanied by one or more horses.
In Markopoulo, if not for many years, are almost always removed.
He has even abolished the official register of fitness at Start of horses and riders.
Learned that his assistants on the other, the F.E.E. will give them permission and they called''Technical Commissioner for''.
Naturally such an innovation is an important instrument to control the F.E.E. assistants better view of the assistants in the future get the assistant on the other and why not the same on the other.
Finally, at the Markopoulo F.E.E. began to achieve something very good.
Let us hope that the coaches, riders and the authorities will respond to the aspirations - aspirations F.E.E.
