I thought Jimmy Jerkens was a MEGA trainer. Maybe not in the way of number of horses but certainly in ability.
Jerkens is a very old school type trainer. He would be considered to some hard on his horses...He works them very fast, etc. ( im not knocking the guy, Id put him in my top 5 for all trainers.)
I read an interview with him. Last year I think in the Bloodhorse, 'he said dad taught him to train his horses hard and the good ones would respond'.
