Having said that, trainers and owners have been using two horses to help set up another horse for as long as horses have been racing and nothing should take away from the tremendous accomplishment by Justify to be a worthy Triple Crown champion.

Speaking of West, I wonder if we will see any Justify-Actress foals. That could be something special.
