Personally I'd rather buy a horse for $75K, knowing McPeek is making out on the horse than buying a horse out-right at an auction for $200K from a guy who doesn't have McPeek's record of buying at the sales but that is just me.
The point is not to dis anyone as buying a yearling is exciting and risky at any level. The point is to praise someone who did well even if he took the first sip of cream off the top. I really hope Chuck and Bob win a g1 with any of their stuff. Heck just because Chuck and I dont see eye to eye certainly doesnt mean I don't wish him anything but the very best.
