TGJB: That one I knew, was one of 4 I pushed in the seminar for that race. But the result is also why I asked. Can\'t find a damn thing.

miff: Samratt air shipped from Palm Meadows to Aqu twice.Think its more an issue of how a horse handles shipping rather than who the trainer is.

True Violette races mostly at NYRA.

louisvilleguy1111: 14% of 69 starters is what I found not sure about big races only.

boston: Read the Footnotes was training at Palm Meadows also.

From Bloodhorse:

Read the Footnotes, a son of sprint champion Smoke Glacken, has been training sharply at Palm Meadows training center, with his most recent works being a six-furlong drill in a bullet 1:12 1/5 and five furlongs in 1:00 1/5. Jerry Bailey will be aboard, as he was in the Nashua and Remsen, and will break from post 8.

louisvilleguy1111: Looks like he is 0-5 in breeders cup races. Only other starter in ky derby was read the footnotes.

I would imagine that most of those 69 were shipped from his NYRA base to Mth and
Parx, two fortresses built on hay oats and water.

Running out of a receiving barn and getting one to settle in temporary lodgings
two different scenarios. Will also be interested to see how Wicked Truth,
allegedly never happy @ GP this winter, acclimates at CD.
