The hardest adversity often leads to the greatest moments of your life. Keep fighting, keep going, never surrender, never give up, never stop, keep grinding. The toughest situations build the strongest people & horses in the end.
I’m so sorry Forte 😢💙🧡🙏🏽

Im a Repole guy . He is great for sport but he also gives 95 % of his horses to Todd Pletcher and 5 % to Rudy. Sport will never change until powerful owners spread their stable out to other trainers. Think bout horses longevity not Derby dreams or just a number.

Are there any massive influencers who every demo knows and who actually loves horse racing, goes to all major events, own horses and still totally and completely get ignored by the sport? I can't think of any.

Todd and I have had great success and an amazing friendship over the last 15 years.
I can honestly say we have never had a disagreement, a fight or an argument.
