I can say for sure I'd train him myself......


And because of that, he'd be in BIG trouble!!!

For Turf I would go with Graham Motion and for dirt I would go with Richard Mandella. Also would have to look at Adein O'brein.

I actually really thought about this question on the way home from work today.

I can narrow it done to a few.

The obvious in a Pletcher or Frankel would not be on my list. I don't want to be part of a large stable or ones which have other unmentionable question marks.

If Shug didn't train privately I'd consider him, but its unrealistic he would take my horse.

I really think at this point I'd ask Tagg to train my horse. Upstanding, an excellent trainer. Can win big dance races and has a small stable. Probably the right guy for me after I win the Mega Millions tonight.
