Those guys jump all over horses exactly like that, and I am sure you follow Illinois racing so closely you would know that. Gran Esteno comes to mind when claimed for 20 or 25k down at Gulfstream when he was being cut in half. Rivelli claimed that horse off of Dutrow I think, then he came here and romped and Stidham claimed him and won the Washington Park Handicap with him later in the meet.

Let me correct myself so we have to be so accurate, Gran Estreno was claimed for 20k after being dropped from 25k by Dutrow, then he romped up here and Stidham took him for 20k and moved him up the ladder.
