Danzig maybe Pletchers hay is 27 a bale and that is why his stock wins so much? lol

yeah, maybe
it's just that not every owner really cares. which makes me wonder why they're an owner to begin with. how often do you pick up a paper, or read online about horses who are neglected/starving and had to be rescued. there's no excuse for it, but sadly it happens. and fairly often it happens to horses who are owned by people who can afford to feed them, and just don't bother.
