I have nothing but the highest regard for the Phipps family and Shug.
I've seen how meticulous they've been with my own eyes.
I was outside the barn when Storm Flag Flying came back from her win at Toga and saw the care. I've seen winner after winner.
Shug's barn is the best. Hanging flower baskets, not a blade of grass out of place.
Total professionals in every sense. Even then, tragedies can happen.
I only know that they give their horses the very best of care, because they show their love.
Details make the picture.
I wish them the best in their continued excellence and contributions to the sport we also love.
