He bought the filly for $10m and paid $100k to nominate her. He won about $660k on Saturday. How is that GREED? He could have bought her and won the Acorn or Mother Goose or CCAOaks. He chose to put HIS filly in a spot where she would be challenged. Is that not the point of racing at the highest level? Is that not why we complain when connections duck the tough spots?
He may crave the attention and the spotlight but he is paying very good money for it.
