Saw Trombetta. An hour ago. He's comfortable with running Magician on the surface but said owner-breeder Larry Johnson, due here soon, will decide. Said Street Magician is indeed back to where he was. Also said Eternal Star will be his Forego starter

Honestly, I hate hearing that. Isn't it the job of the trainer to make these calls? I know I wouldn't go to Chuck and say "I don't think we should run today" if he's already declared a horse ready to go.

Agree 100%. You hire a trainer for several reasons and deciding whether to run or not on a wet surface would be one of those reasons for me.

Trainers that are successful long term adjust their personalities to co-exist with clients they think are worth adjusting for.. Mike and Johnson get along well and have had a lot of success together. Johnson certainly doesn't make calls without Mike's input.
