La Penta's horses that race have almost all been offered for sale as 2 year olds, they race the ones that they can not sell. They are far from culls but all the same players have a shot at them. Zito has done an unbelievable job picking out horses. To have an immensely successful pinhooking operation and also have the top horses that he and La Penta have had the past few years is near impossible.
Chuck -- I've stayed out of this discussion on purpose, by design. However, I no longer can. Please, I absolutely and emphatically say to you "Please" -- please do not confuse nonsensical rantings and ravings, claims and BS with your facts.

In addition, a person such as yourself -- one who completely understands the facts -- who has a qualified opinion on matters such as these, who can have an educated discussion on these types of matters, can speak to these types of things, etc. -- you have no place here in this conversation.

Let's not let logic, common sense and facts creep into this type of conversation.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way -- let the lunacy continue.

Actually, I appreciate the facts and like listening to what Chuck has to say about these kinds of things. I don't know that much about the guys on the East Coast so...
