Isn't this a simple case of, given that all of Courtland's horses were removed from his barn, a major falling out between trainer and owner? I doubt the move has anything to do with comparing Graham Motion's and Bill Mott's respective turf numbers.

Also, as an aside, when did Adriano become some monster turf horse anyways? Didn't he get lit up in the Laurel Futurity?

I'll take Nistlee's Crunch in a head-to-head any day of the week (with Old Man Buck and Cherokee Triangle as alternates)...
