I'd definitely give consideration to Jimmy Jerkens. I've been a big fan of Sir Greeley racing every 3 to 4 weeks and being able to compete at stakes level. Now his handling of Corinthian has been extremely refreshing. Very few trainers would have brought Corinthian back in three weeks for the Gulfstream Park Handicap. Even fewer would follow up that G2 win by running in the G3 Excelsior which does nothing for the stallion resume and doesn't really serve as a prep for anything. This guy actually races his horses and if I own a horse I want a horse that actually races regularly and isn't coddled in his stall with 5 to 8 weeks between starts.
