If he wanted a bigger stable he would have it, simple as that. He is a vietnam vet that is definitely a quite but take no **** kind of person. I believe his relationship with 505 came to a bitter end with the whole Bertrando incident, I could be wrong. Frankel took him, no problem.

Top 5 horsemen at Del Mar, currently on the grounds that is, if I had a horse if I would feel comfortable that the horses best interest would be at the forefront,
Bill Spwar
Dick Mandella
John Shirrreffs
Ron McAnally
and a guy who has only been here recently, Tom Proctor.
Guys like Baffert, Oneill, he I like them from a betting standpoint, like the fact they run their horses, not always on the level with their owners.
People I would trust the least, Ted West, Mike Mitchell, Barry Abrams
