it appears that i was too late in mentioning this story, as others already did so. funny tho how some have an answer for everything, especially when it doesn't fit into their idea of how dwl may or may not be...
I don't recall saying that lukas doesn't care about his horses. I stated a personal preference for different trainers and why. Honestly, I don't like the racing schedules I've seen with horses like Going Wild, but then again, had he not been aggressive with Charismatic he wouldn't have won the roses with him. From everything I've read and seen of his records, DWL is much to complex for me to form a black and white opinion on him. Just the other day I was marveling over his quotes at some seminar, it was something about success and working hard and was probably the best quote I've read in a long time from anyone in this business, but I would probably still choose a different trainer.
