A guy named Jones I believe. Who the hell is Ron Moffett? Sounds like a porn star.

I think he came from Arkansas. I don't remember who had him but he was not at what most would consider an A track.

MDO came from Oaklawn Park. I think he had two starts, a win and a second, both in maiden special weights.

Isn't he a trainer?

Was I not only wrong but did I also make someone up? Do I get points for that?

Linny is right.....he did come from Arkansas.

No wonder Vance always looks so mad at the world. First Possum Head steals a BC win from him then MDO

Kiaran's numbers are actually kind of interesting and obviously involve some fairly well bred horses. Though Lear's Princess only cost $110K. While three winners from early this year all went on extensive " vacations ", one won back with a 100 plus Beyer fig and another won two additional races, Divine Park, including the Grade 3 Withers. Lear's Princess had a full year and won a Grade 1 and placed in two others. Etched returned from a maiden win to win the Grade 3 Nashua and three have been very recent winners.

But, we are obviously, as you said, dealing with much more expensive stock. I don't think he makes a fair comparison with Contessa either way.

Some great points. Push a 2 yr old to win first out and then goes on shelf. That's not a good scenario imo.
