I guess little Riley Tucker's Facebook avatar was correct:

Juddmonte taps Mott as main man
By Steve Andersen

INGLEWOOD, Calif. - Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott will have a stable of approximately 12 horses in Southern California beginning next month, including an undetermined number from Khalid Abdullah's Juddmonte Farms. Mott said on Friday that he will decide which horses will be sent to California after Christmas. The stable will be based at Santa Anita.

"We've just got a couple of horses for the stakes and we're trying to get it together," Mott said. "I'll pick up a few of the Juddmonte horses after Christmas."

Juddmonte Farms had horses with the late Hall of Fame trainer Bobby Frankel until his death last month. In recent weeks, the California-based Juddmonte runners have started for Frankel's former assistant, Humberto Ascanio. Juddmonte manager Garrett O'Rourke said on Friday that Mott will train the majority of the stable's runners in the United States in 2010, and that Ascanio will train Midships, the multiple stakes winner on turf. Midships, trained by Frankel earlier this year, is expected to return to training in early 2010.

"Bill Mott will be our number-one trainer," said O'Rourke. He added that Juddmonte is "down to a pretty small string already" in the United States.
