Figures. I'm not impressed by McP. Unlike some, I don't think he is "any angel either" and he is I'm sure, arrogant to boot.

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.
