How do you know they are reaching lifetime tops, I am speaking in relation to figures??

A horse like Rebounded is strictly a good claim, Tagg offered him for 30k and they took him.

I am not saying they are choir boys, but they usually win at 40% anyways, so now they are just hot, they have had plenty of weekends where they have won 5 out of 8 races they have run in. It wasn't like the horses that are winning haven't made 100% logicial sense, there hasn't been an illogical winner yet from them
Really wish I could believe it was legit Scav but, given the nature of horse racing, I am more inclined to believe a fat man with a red suit and white beard will bring me presents in late December.

I hate to say it, but the game of horse racing is not being governed by anyone. There is absolutely no accountability. The trends Catalano is hitting should be a red flag for investigation. Nothing will happen.

What is really touching is their love and mutual respect for each other. I think this year is the 1ST I can remember with a public falling out
