Looks Like The Move Up Trainers Had A Great Day

[Millennium3]

Many rightly believe that the biggest dark cloud in racing to develop over the last 10 years is the \"Move Up Trainer\" phenomenon, or what used to be called \"Mystifying Form Reversal\" phenomenon. It\'s more widespread now than ever.

Like Wayne Lukas himself said recently (paraphrasing): we all know there are trainers, and there are chemists out there among us. And those chemists hurt the game, in every way.

I know I\'ll sound like a grouse, but the fact is that many trainers that have had the \"Move Up\" prefix added to their titles did well yesterday, and I\'m unhappy about that: Dutrow won 2; Frankel, a win & a second; Pletcher a win (Magna Graduate), a second and a third. And yet Bill Mott, whom I have yet to hear rumblings of larceny about & has been on fire this meet, went totally bust yesterday. Glad at least Shug got one, and Wayne. Keeps my faith a little bit.

You really have to wonder if Leroi was even 100% given that he worked with bar shoes and raced with aluminium pads. He might have won otherwise.
