Veteran horseman Johnny Burke claims he s a “small cog” in the grand scheme of the Godolphin operation, but every good engineer knows that every cog in the machine, no matter how small, has to work together in perfect synchronicity to produce the desired outcome.
“I m part of a big, global team, just trying to get the boss in the winner s circle,” Burke said. “It s me that s having the good fortune to work with these guys, the whole team. Any time we get to be associated with a horse that s winning, we enjoy knowing that we played a part in it.”
