Personally I wish her well.

Still wondering why the conversation didn't end right here.

Pitts gets nothing but rave reviews, and in Chicago, I cannot think of very many trainers who get the unabashed respect that Christine Janks gets from everyone who follows Chicago racing. All class and very good at what she does.

Sanders gets bashed not because she is a woman, not because she took Teuflesburg to the Derby (who wouldn't?!), but because now after having been given every reason to see that he rates a good chance to clean up on one-turn 3yo races, she's still entertaining the idea of letting him be an also-ran in the Travers.

Really, all the rest of the stuff in here is nothing more than trolling for a fight. There is no sociological explanation for it, it is a statistical explanation...which I figured everyone would have understood from the last eighteen times we've had to have this conversation.

Cripe. I just spent my full allotment of DT time today on this trash.

Nice to see you all.
