Nick's horses are stabled in Saratoga, genius. He spends time there and in NY. You know, just like your newest idol, Todd Pletcher, who has so many horses, he too has a bunch at Saratoga, where Todd ( like Nick ) also spends time.

So Todd has won five times as much money as Nick this year. How many more horses do you think Todd has than Nick? And, with all those 2YOs, isn't it interesting that Nick won more 2YO dirt maiden races than Todd did at Saratoga this past summer.

So his 3YOs are, according to you awful. That I guess is Nick's fault. I guess it must be, because he hasn't had any success in the past with 3YOs. Oh, I forgot, he has won the Derby twice, the Preakness and the Belmont ( 2 years ago ). I'm a little foogy, you know...from responding to moronic posts, how many TC races has the world's greatest trainer Todd Pletcher won.

By the way, Todd is a terrific trainer, but he's neither the greatest trainer around, as you claim, nor would he suggest as much.

Look Mr. Wood, I am not a Pletcher fan. The numbers don't lie though. He is winning everything and has a great shot in numerous BC races.

As for Zito, I just said he is no longer a dominant trainer. His 3yr olds are terrible and he has some really expensive ones. I don't know if he bought them, but they were terrible. For a guy whose barn is centered on 3yr olds, he has done miserably.
