More proof D Wayne has lost whatever it was

[hockey2315]

I agree that D. Wayne probably doesn't deserve all the criticism he gets from people, but he said that

“It’s scary how good this horse is, and it’s particularly scary to imagine how good he’ll be at two-turns. He is professional beyond belief, and I’m certain he will excel at two-turns. He’s fast, but very ratable. He won’t need the lead. He’s ready to step into the deep end of the pool. It won’t scramble his brain.”

How could a Hall of Fame trainer be so out of touch with one of his horses?

I think he likes to hear himself quoted to feed that ego and keep the name in type. I guess if you say enough things, some of it will stick and then we remember, " ah, he said that about such and such horse...." Of course like anyone else sometimes he's right and sometimes he's wrong. But, he's very good at putting out the quotable lines or sound bytes.
