Barn is ice cold on both coasts and in between. What gives? Have there been some changes?

I have also noticed Pletcher's horses not running much of a lick either lately.

Where are they not running? He's over 30% at Gulfstream.

santa anita, and oaklawn

12% at SA

5% at Oaklawn

20% at Aqueduct

As for Pletcher I just notice is when im watching races, didnt know he is actually 30% at GP, but he is only 7% in NY

How many horses had Pletcher had start at Santa Anita and Oaklawn?

I'm talking about Pletcher...not Asmussen which is why i bolded it.

not talking about pletcher

oh ok gotcha, its just from races ive been watching from Pletcher runners.

Any examples of horses that aren't performing? Because his horses are running terrific at Gulfstream.

If you're referring to the horse that just ran at AQU...that horse stinks.

yeah i shouldnt count NY because the horses worth a damn are in Florida right now..haha

Bob Baffert is 12% at Santa Anita and Adam Kitchingman is winning at 100 percent in 2013 going 4 for 4 and D Wayne Lukas is having a great 2013 so far. What is going on here?

Maybe Bob's got poor herd dynamics.

Asmussen is doing okay at Fair Grounds. He has been active at the claim box, especially claiming for himself. He took six on January 19.

I took a bath on Sir Bond yesterday at SA.
I thought 5:1 was a gift considering how weak the field was compared to what he had been facing.

I had Sir Bond too. The slow pace hurt his chances.

Compared to past races, he was closer to the pace, IMO.
