Starlight Stables removed both Harlan's Holiday and Repent from McP after they won and sent them to Pletcher. If I recall, they were both injured. Same with Sarava...owner moved him to Baffert after he won the Belmont at 70-1 and he was injured as well.

Probably was Helen Pitts who did most of the "heavy lifting" for McP.
Though I am probably the last person in the world who anyone would think would stick up for McPeek , I am amazed by how many people give credit to Helen Pitts for McPeeks success despite the fact he has been far more successful since she went on her own.
