Another certain trainer is worth mentioning in this circumstance. He picked out two champions as two-year-olds in training. Usually, good two-year-olds in training go for much more than good yearlings. Both horses cost $75,000 or less. One won the KD and Preakness, the other was a turf champion. This is a trainer that continues to climb the ranks with less quality stock than a lot of these guys like Zito.
