shipping in for 1 race, and riding at saratoga on a daily basis is a huge difference.

Exactly. Too many good riders to leave in the room for these guys to get many live mounts. And, any live mount they get, they will get exactly one chance to win on. Whether they can ride or not is completely irrelevent....it's all about access and they will have none.

Trujillo will probably get some horses from Florida-based guys if any ship up (which may be more likely this year with the problems at Calder). . . He's better than Theriot in my opinion but I haven't really watched either one too closely.

Speaking of Trujillo - was Dry Martini retired? I don't remember hearing anything.
