With regard to Ellis, his numbers speak for themselves. Bad trainers don't have years when they win at 29% clips. Bad trainers don't win graded stakes races at a 40% clip.
I noticed you are starting to backtrack a bit. At first you said that Ellis is terrible. Now you are saying that he is average.
What do you expect from him when he comes on TVG? I never said that he could make his living handicapping. I think he comes off fine on TVG. He comes off just as well as the other trainers that they have on.

Terrible job with DM/Average trainer.......
What do I expect from a trainer who comes on TVG to talk about horses? Not a whole lot....just not to be a blithering idiot at times....I loved it when he was on during the Del MAr Derby...I loved Get Funky.....Ellis...the brainiac that he is says the following about the horse:
"Well...I think the one thing about this horse is after the races we all like to get funky down here by the beach.....you need to consider that"
What in gods name is this idiot saying? Then during the post parade he said the same damn thing...
The guy is embarassing on TV.....He picked another horse to win....I was that much more comfortable betting Get Funky......he won at 6-1 rather easily...
