But seriously, even at five hundred or so, I don't see how these big guys do it. They have to employ very good people and possess better than average management skills. If you look at a Pletcher or Assmussen, these are substantial enterprises that they are running. Quite successfully I might add.
I laughed when I saw that too. I knew what he meant though It is hard to manage a barn with 40 horses. I can't imagine having anymore than that. These guys like Asmussen and Pletcher are phenomenal.
