To be honest these connections care less than most would about being champion. They themselves are in the breeding game and they now have an impressive grade one winning son of Storm Cat with a strong bottom line on the female side. He is now officially an ATM machine. What they want are more impressive races from him to strengthen his stud value. I don't think they particularly care about being champion and realize that it is a very long shot that they get the championship.
