Dutrow doesn't get shunned with bigger owners as much as Mullins though.

As far as the 2012 stats go:

Dutrow: 77-for-265 (29% wins) $1,96 ROI

Mullins: 25-for-107 (23% wins) $2.99 ROI

Larry Jones: 31-for-109 (28% wins) $2.72 ROI

That trio has been magical over the last 15 years. Of the three, Mullins has been by far the most shunned by owners.

It has to be the mulletude.
