He penned his memoirs, “More Trying Horses”. This was a sequel to his earlier “Are Your Horses Trying?” – a book more technical in nature, detailing things Fred had learnt about horse physiology.
He was persuaded into writing by his second wife, journalist Molly Reinhardt, who had a popular “Sunday Times” column called “With Love and Hisses” and also wrote a best-selling history of the Durban July. He absorbed everything he could about healing racehorses, becoming skilled at physiotherapy.
Once, when Sledgehammer dislocated his near-hind leg in training, Fred calmed the panicking horse with soothing words before suddenly shoving the patella back into place with a loud click – all before an astonished crowd of Summerveld onlookers. “Sledge” walked away as if nothing had happened.
