Actually agree with this, as we have some horses out of Philly, and it works, especially with a PA-bred. We have a 2YO PA-bred who hasn't run yet, but you win a MSW, for a 45K purse, we also get the 40% PA-bred bonus, then if we are lucky enough to say win a MSW and NW1X, we are out for like the next 2 years in the black.
And don't get me started on Juan Carlos Guerrero, one of the biggest cheats in the country and easily the biggest cheat at Philadelphia not named McCaslin/Vayders/Auwarter. Guerrero is worse than them, worse than Lake, worse than everyone. He's improving horses at super-trainer ala Marty Wolfson levels at Philly. He's such a cheat, it's a joke.
