He must have been in a bad mood. Also this Chuck Simon is the most negative trainer I've ever heard, he has nothing positive to say about anybody or anything. He downgrades the Japan Cup Surburban, Big Brown,
I know he is entitled to his opinion, but he only talks about the negative. What a difference between his interview, and someone like Larry Jones,Shug
Madella, Frankel, Zito and that'smy opinion! Let me say that most of the shows are great, just a bummer yesterday.

SDJ,

The Brown/Dutrow story has evolved since Triple Crown season. Dutrow's comments the other day were just ridiculous... they deserved to be derided.

Chuck understands more about the game than most anyone and is not shy about voicing his opinion. There is no mainstream media around to intelligently discuss racing on a daily basis like ATR can, and I do my best to have as many topical guests as possible to provide and promote that discussion.
