Who are we talking about that is worth multiple billions?

So what's gonna be said if Mo runs but gives a "Life at Ten" type performance? Will it take another 10 months to sort that out?

The guy's trying to buy part of the Mets, Repole's got to be at least a billionaire, no?

I don’t think Mo is going to run in the Derby. He’s been suspect all year; the GI infection, surgery, Repole’s most recent comments, and now Mike Welsch reports today that “he appears to be a little on the light side”.

Although, his coat looks good.

According to you he just dropped a few billion. Tough day.

He's got a lot of money. Isn't that enough?

I think you think I have a problem with the guy; I don't. I think he's been great for the game, and really don't particularly care how wealthy he is. My point was simply that the man has the means in a $100 million-ish pool to actually change the odds if he really had his mind set on doing it.

Why not focus on the way Repole went about his business learning the game from marginal animals..He wasn't a Jay O and went to Keeneland buying a few 500k yearlings. The man learned the gme from the bottom up before he ventured into he higher end of the market. Give him credit..Asl Satish Sanan if he wished he did it Repole's way?
