Thorn Song is a likeable horse and Romans has done a decent job, but Romans overall hasn't been up to the level of the better trainers.
Separate from Thorn Song, Zayat has given him a lot of animals with good early speed that you can pretty much assume will quit and will not develop stamina. Mitchell is a good move up trainer. You get the impression he has his runners pain-free.

after winning out West he might have wanted to keep him there with a local trainer especially with the B.C. there.

Romans runs a folding horse. Zayat gives the appearance that he gets fleeced at the sales, and has had enough publicized and private missteps that further make him look incompetent.

BTW none of the unfortunate horse trainers had a gun to their head to take millions in high profile stock.. Remember they had a choice and hence the "dynamic" was something that they should have dealt with in advance.

Kind of funny that these two teamed up to win with the very hard to figure Eaton's Gift yesterday in the Smile Sprint. Going away present I guess.

Kinda of off topic but Zayat had one claimed today at Pleasanton (Benjamin Z in the 6th) - Zayat bought the horse for $950,000 and lost it today in a $8,000 claiming race - it was claimed by Ellen Jackson, a trainer/breeder who will probably turn him to stud sooner rather than later.

Didn't the Marlins fire their manager after he was named Manager of the Year? Nothing against Mott he is a Hall of Fame trainer, perhaps Zayat and or his team thought they would be better off elsewhwere? The point is who cares? It's Zayat's business and his investment is our enjoyment and the trainers, breeders, and bloodstocks agent's livelihood.
