I know of only one farm the Blocks own so where are all the rest, "all over the place"?

He has one in Ocala and I think he has one near Barrington, I could be wrong about the Barrington.
I think CB is a hell of a trainer, don't get me wrong with that. I understand about vet bills but protect him and run him in one of the many optional claiming or something of that nature. Someone could have easily dropped on him on a fly and then he gets hurt again and he is first in line in DeKalb, not cool if this were to happen. He was quoted numerous times that MG would never run for a tag after the injury and he went and did it. It is disrespectful to the horse that did so much for his family IMO.
