I am still skeptical that he won a bunch of races last meet with a bunch of 50k types and nothing you have shown with the exception of 1 horse says otherwise.
He actually did win with a bunch of yearling purchases under 100k. Mind you I never question your horsemanship or talents as a trainer.

I am not the point here nor am I the point in most threads. I never said anything about Mcpeek negatively or positively. Because I train horses doesnt mean that everything I said is to be taken in the context of me. Far from it. I have more words put into my mouth here than I put food in it in real life, which is a tough thing to do.

Your posts came across poorly, perhaps it wasnt your intention.

I read through them. They were pretty clear.

Well if one trainer reps that "the vast majority" are retired after a guy just knocked the friggin cover off the ball this fall..It seems a bit suspect.. How about the guy has been solid gold but he went thru quite a few to find a few diamonds? Maybe that is what you were thinking but failed to acknowledge he kicked butt with a bunch of VERY moderately priced yearlings.

I dont seem to remember saying ANYTHING about McPeek except that I didnt believe his success at Keeneland was with a bunch of 50k types. This is just another example of saying i said something that I never even implied.

Did you look at the list on the link? It is a list of stakes winners, the vast majority of them havent raced in some time. How that list has anything to do with the last meet at Keeneland i am unsure of.

I am quite sure you watched the Keeneland meet. I am quite sure you watched McPeek win with everything. I didn't need to look at a list to tell me what went on three weeks ago neither did you. So your post is what a comment on the list?

IF? you read the thread I was simply posting that McPeek had a big meet.. Gales commented that he was on vacation and it was his assistants doing the work(good for McPeek).. Then Scavs chimes in on McPeeks cut on partnership(jealous) then you suggest incorrectly for a change about McPeeks stock purchase prices. I didnt need a list all I needed to do was read the friggin form daily and watch the meet. Sightseek posted the list for whatever friggin reason but clearly he was takin back by your lack of insight on McPeeks success and IMO shouldnt have dragged your business into it. Your business is your business but whatever you have a lot to say so I guess you have to be willing since your business is somewhat public to deal with the critisms(your a big boy you handle yourself fine). ANYHOO who gives a dam about the list the conversation was about McPeek, his work habits (gales) his Chop (Scavs) and his success (FMO).. the assertion that McPeek stock is retired suggests what? He burned them out ? The drugs killed them? The stock was crap? Oh you we just clarifing that the list didnt accurately represent that McPeek had just crushed Keeneland of course we should have guessed.
