I don't think Autrey had a very good meet last year at Del Mar. A lot of those horses claimed from Autrey stepped up for the other barns. One of those, Dearest Tricski, who was taken for 12 or 16k, ended up a Grade 1 winner. In addition, Autrey got two medication positives during the meet (which I don't recall the final rulings for).
