I have seen this one...the classic line is when he and Lyons were talking about 2 year olds and spending $16mm on a 2 year old who may or may not race.

Pretty amazing to make it as far as he has. I'm really impressed that he was so hands on with the transaction with Candy Ride as well. All around a great guy. (and I want to see his art collection!)

The idea for this show was just brilliant. I look up to these guys who put so much of their work into these horses and it is interesting to learn more about them and the horses they train.

I echo your sentiments. I would love to see his art collection as well. I loved how he thought Candy Ride was a little "pricey" but the Craig's were like, GO FOR HIM. He is an amazing man and one person who is a good guy in this sport.
