Yes indeed, thanks.

If you would like to be in Tampa I would suggest Jordan Blair, he trains for a group I am involved with and seems to take very good care of his horses and has a small barn and is based in Tampa for the winter.

I know that this is supposed to be a sheets forum, but during the triple crown
 season the loonies have been out in force. Sooo... I am posting a little inside
 info that has no numbers support. We tried to enter ATM in an allowance at
 keeneland and most recently Churchill and got shut out. Next week we are entering
 him in a 25k claimer at Belmont. I have absolutely no idea what the competition
 will be like. Off the top of my head I think he ran a couple 9\'s this winter.
    There is absolutely nothing wrong with the horse so don\'t be afraid to bet
 him if he looks competitive. He is training great we are just praying he gets
 in and we can poach a nice purse. In the words of old Harvey Pack may the horse
 be with us!
