For starters ... the guy has won 3 different Breeders Cup races in the last 4 years with horses he moved way up.

Here's Silver Train: http://www.drf.com/row/pps/silvertrain.pdf (7th beaten 13+ lengths in an N1X allowance in his final start before going to Dutrow. Less than 8 months later he wins the Breeders Cup Sprint.)

Here's Saint Liam: http://www.drf.com/row/pps/saintliam.pdf (6th by 7.75 lengths in an N2X alw in his final start pre Dutrow. He magically transforms into the 2005 Horse of the Year after a Breeders Cup Classic win as the favorite.

Here's Kip Deville: http://www.drf.com/row/pps/kipdeville.pdf (In his first start for Dutrow Jr. - he opens up a 15 length lead in a 14 horse field - getting his first six furlongs in an insane 1:08 3/5 going 9.5 furlongs! He stays on for 2nd at 28/1 odds. Future Breeders Cup Mile winner. 2nd in the '08 Mile as well)

Oh yeah, I'm going to assume Beyer made a big stink about Dutrow in the "origal" piece because a toad named This One's For Phil ran unexplainably fast in his first start for Dutrow.

I know he's employed and all now ... but can someone please page BTW and tell him to come by again and mock me for answering all your questions.
