This goes to something that was discussed on ATR last week. The super trainer is pushing people out of the game(I realize DWL might not qualify in terms of numbers anymore but he used to). I like small stables, but the genie isn't going back in the bottle.

Chip Woolley and D. Wayne are just about equally competent.

Hasn't Mine That Bird had 3 or 4 different trainers in his career already?

Yes. Winning the Derby, 2nd in Preak, 3rd in Belmont was only 1 of those trainers.

Chip Woolley did a great job with Mine That Bird through the Triple Crown last year. His horse won the Derby, lost the Preakness only because he ran into an exceptional filly, and had his chances in the Belmont compromised by a lousy ride from an overconfident jock. He doesn't deserve getting knocked.

Default Mine That Bird to Lukas

Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

Mine That Bird, the 2009 Kentucky Derby winner, left New Mexico on Wednesday morning bound for Churchill Downs, where he will be trained by D. Wayne Lukas, Leonard Blach, a co-owner of the gelding, said Wednesday.
