It's not like I'm saying anything controversial. If you asked any of these guys, they would tell you the same thing. If you asked Frankel what would happen to his win percenatge if he started running his horses every 2-3 weeks, he would tell you that his win percenatge would go way down.
Haha, I know Richi. You and I have had several knock-down dragouts about Lukas and I concede this one to you. In my opinion, he should just quit if he has enough money to live on.

I wouldn't think he could deal with not being on top....

But who knows what makes a man tick?

Lukas is a workaholic. He's very competitive and very driven. I couldn't really see him retiring.
