Oh I'm thinking he would be churning if he looked up on the stand and it was Pletcher and Prado hoisting the trophy. As much as I would like to see Prado win, I want Pletcher to lose even more.
how can you be dominant for years, yet overrated? season doesn't come down to three races, does it? matz sure didn't get the eclipse last year for trainer!
