Wow, you put 2 question marks on a thread and boy you take a lot of **** for it....B/c he didn't take much in the way of money he wasn't a putover, but I was surprised how professional he was....And for the record, I believe his last 2 works were the slowest on the tab....But thanks, hooves in particular for that nice post of yours. Some of you guys scare me quite frankly. Disagreeing with someone and then turning it into a question of ignorance is 2 entirely different things.

Does that barn not play BTW, because it sure looked on paper like that horse had a little talent and the hand was tipped in the work pattern.

Randall, you made a comment " but what could Gregg honestly put down anyway? " that displayed a complete lack of understanding...i.e ignorance. As I said, my comments weren't intended as a personal attack, but only the truth. Saying someone is " ignorant " about something they speak about is not an insult.

If you actually knew some facts about the person you spoke of you would understand the situation better. Sometimes making comments here without knowing any facts can be dangerous. In this case you put your foot in your mouth.

I was more bothered by Hooves truthfully...I didn't think it was a putover, I just thought it was strange. And no I don't know the guy so he could be a billionaire---so I was wrong there. I know his training record and was basing it more off that. Silly me.

What would his training record have to do with whether or not they bet? And, come on with the " silly me "

Money from training Andy. Again, I didn't realize the guy had mega bucks.....The same way I'd be surprised if Candlin dropped 50k on one of his firsters.
