hhmmmm thanks for the idea, ebay also then!![/QUOTE]

Is yours the one on there now? Sad Sigh My max bid didn’t even meet the Reserve… Oh well it was worth a shot… :wink:

OK, it ended – anyone know what it ended at?

Update

OK, so I called Dwyer Productions. Not the same people. :frowning: Those with the vid, does the casing on the vid have any other info on it as to the production company such as location, etc.?

Perhaps you should prod Acertainsmile to suggest to Mr. Jenkins that he try to get it re-released on DVD?? He may not be interested in h/j anymore but what is the harm in making a little pocket change from a DVD?

I have it at home will look tonight.

Rodney was THE MASTER, no doubt. Olin is definitely THE MASTER these days.

Awesome!

Are you talking about the one I had on Ebay? I got $126 for it.

Slightly off-topic but it is nice to see that Rodney is enjoying some success with his race training as evidenced by a recent runner Chasin Tiger - see article below. Unlike say Michael Matz, Jenkins (like 99.5% of all trainers) never has had that ‘mega horse’ as part of his barn.

1-21-08 “Chasin Tiger wins fifth straight”

[jockey Dane Kobiskie]:"Once Rodney figured him out he has just been dynamite.”

“I just trained him the wrong way by sending him to the lead,” Jenkins said. “He worked better than any horse we ever had. Now that he is closing, it has been a different story.”

Chasin Tiger could have been claimed for $5,000 on June 19th at Colonial Downs. Since then, and including that start, he’s won six times and placed three times, all for trainer Rodney Jenkins and mostly under jockey Dane Kobiskie.

How cool is that? Great ROI!

OK, so if one were to have, say, an editorial copy of the 1993 Budweiser American Invitational from Tampa FL, how would one list that on eBay so interested horsepeople could find it? Editorial copy meaning without commercials, not taped off of the TV…

One might also have the Rodney video, but it’ll be a cold day in he!! before one sells that gem!! :smiley:

I have that tape! It is a good one. I bought it 2 years ago out of a bargain bucket for $10. I guess I lucked out lol.

For those of you who want to pursue it…from the box it says “Dwyer Productions 1-800-944-3199 sponsored by Lexol, Practical Horseman, Dehner and Corona”
If the 800 # does not work (haven’t tried it) then maybe contact Practical Horseman.
Good luck (runs to hide own copy).

Too funny. Now, someone is advertising on the Houston Craigs List wanting to buy a copy of this tape! Whatcha bet they are wanting to buy it cheap and resell it?

LOL! I have this tape. It’s the best.

I’ll sell mine for $500!!! :slight_smile:

It is back on Ebay again. this is crazy how many people want this video

I can believe it. It really is an excellent tape. I made a copy of the one I had and put on DVD.

rodney jenkins was my idol growing up in virginia and I watched him ride and school and show Idle Dice and Number ONe Spy, I then got my first jumper and put two barrels on top of each other in my local backyard just a step below an A rated barn and anyway put two barrels on each other to make a pole across them 6’ 3" abouts and I would then jump my mare over it pretending to be rodney at the Washington International jumping the red wall

the closest I ever came to that dream was competing on the A circuit in the Modifieds and Mini Prixs for years and once showing at night under lights in a high jump class and jumping a wall at 5’9" 1/2 on a different horse, if that first horse had still been alive I am sure we would have gone higher and won , but still it was an incredible experience. I did later school a horse 7 foot at home

rodney however made jumping 5 and 6 foot look like x rails

looks like it is on ebay again for everyone looking
