Title: "Move Up" Trainers Don't Win the Derby
Post by: Sandreadis on May 01, 2008, 07:45:18 AM
Look at the list of winning trainers for past KDerbies. All pretty solid,reputable guys. Absent from the list are the usual suspects.Coincidence,maybe?
Aren\'t you BB backers scared to death to invest in a trainer like Tricky? What if his numbers were aided? Security and testing increase at CD.
Chuckie, I\'m surprised I guy that tossed all the Pletcher entrants last year would support a guy like Dutrow for all the same reasons.
Pletcher again ships in last minute from Keeneland.His horses don\'t work at CD. Hey Todd, was it the great success you had last year in the derby that caused you to repeat your training regiment? I know the reasons he gives but it sounds like a bunch a BS.It is mind boggling how he has chosen not to work these horses on the CD dirt.
