Tons of stallions begin breeding mares in May. Maybe they will send him directly to Australia 1st then shuttle him back to the US?

While I am all for going for the cash, and I am obviously not a trainer, nor will I ever be, but wouldn't it be beneficial to get this horse a 8f prep before going a bizillion miles to run 10f's without meds, off a layoff.

Just going there seems like a recipe for disaster.

You would think the writers at Bloodhorse would make a mention to that. If they do that I guess it is cool. From a financial perspective, which Jackson might be considering given he probably shelled out alot of cash to become the primary, then the prep will be larger then anything here. But he runs like crap in the prep, you risk looking like a moron
