It wasn't pretty circumstancial, it was 100% circumstancial. I'll be the first to admit that I have no clue what the situation is there, but reading there were stalls to be had raised a red flag with me.

There are still plenty of empties according to trainers there.

It's so amusing to see the empress get the feathers of his boa ruffled wherever he goes these days.

I thought Calabrese won both # Wins and $ titles at Tropical in the fall, is leading both at Calder and led owners in wins at Gulfstream.

Top 5 in the country in wins this year and last and in the top 20 in earnings this year.

It seems he knows, at least a little bit about, what he's doing.

He'll probably do well out of NJ. Certainly the claiming side of things is much more attractive there.

Yeah, takes a lot of talent to claim for 25k and run back for 10k and win.

Yeah, like Romacaca, which he claimed for $25k and won $400,000 with?
