As for not going to CA, guys like Frankel and Baffert win grade 1's all the time with their assistants saddling their horses.

Pletcher is probably the best I have ever seen when it comes to placing his horses.

I realize you're like 12 years old, and don't know anything about the game, but you really make some moronic comments. " Zito can't even win a Grade 1 ". Are you really this stupid or are you just looking for another fight.

My guess? It's a combination of both. Now go change your diapers, or log off, because you will need to do at least one of those.

How many grade 1's has he won this year MR. WOOD? LOL. What are you 12?

In fact he was the one saying he can't get lucky and win one. Just keeps coming up short.

Is that more a product of the talent of horses that he has at his disposal or his skill as a trainer?

I don't think he works as hard as he used to and he certainly doesn't work as hard as Pletcher. Good for Zito. He has a life now.

My knock on Zito is really his job with Sun King. A poor job placing him and the horse continually loses despite being the best horse at the wire.

Hes a workaholic, and the rationale that because you don't see him at Belmont, that he isn't it, is borderline maniacal.
He practically lives at the barn up here.
His plan a few years back was to train fewer horses, and train up here in Saratoga 6 months a year.
I don't know anyone who can see all the way to Saratoga from Belmont, and I doubt you can either.
His placement with a horse who was beaten a head and nose in the two of the three most presitigious races in NY for older horses, looks pretty good to me.

I don't know what self-esteem is. Let me go ask my brother.
