I know huh , the man has like 5 billion dollars and that is a fact , he is in his 70's and he wants a Derby winner before he dies , so look out in the next few years , he's goint to be all out trying to get that horse.

It will be interesting to see who really pans out next year between the Empire Makers, Vindications and Mineshafts, all of which I think Wayne picked up one or two!

This yearling sale in July at Keeneland has some Olmodavor and Action This Day babies in it. Mr Hughes' horse manager Seth has said that the Action This Day babies are good looking , he said he was suprised at the strong looking hips they had on them coming from the Kris S line .
Olmodavor was an A.P Indy horse we had , he came from France and never ran as a 2 or 3 yr old. He was beautiful horse with such and intelligant eye , he ran second once to Mineshaft and second to Medaglia d' Oro I think he won a graded race at some point , not a real fancy porfolio , but I think he could be worth a taking a chance on .
