He did not buy a horse mid TC that wasn't nominated for the races.
You're doing some serious reaching.

who said anything about 7k claimers? not i. i seem to recall a big jockey to-do not long ago, regarding dunkirk and pioneer of the nile. matter of fact, i don't think dunkirk has had the same jock throughout his brief career. and yes, jackson and allen both spent more money than most folks see over several years' time to buy what they thought was a good horse, and a good investment. has nothing to do with nominations.
