Frankel keeping Ghostzapper together was an amazing feat. I have never liked the guys from interviews, etc... but the guy can get them to run. BT claims its the juice. I think he is very patient and careful.

Even though Lucas is a hall of fame trainer and has so many records, I dont get the feeling he would be to upset if Barbaro or LITF were his horses. Next please kinda thing. Just my feeling about him now.

One more thing. Pletcher has won over 120 turf races in 2005-2006. I bet you Lukas didn't win 120 turf races in the entire 1990s.

Frankel rocks. If I had a horse in training it would go to him. I don't care about a trainer having people skills, it's horse skills that matter.

Frankel is a great trainer but his " people skills " have alienated him from more owners than you would believe.

One of very few trainers that wear jeans when their horse is the favorite in a 1/2 million dollar race, and get away with it. He could wear a speedo as long as my horse won and i would just have the cpu erase him LMAO

It's way to early for the mental image of Frankel in a speedo! LOL
