Once upon a time, he was one of my favorite trainers. is he running out of horses to race :? I know Da Tara, at 4, doesnt have but a few more starts than Ra and MTB do as 3 yr olds, but still, from what I read, its a shame that he is being used for rabbits, instead of races where he might do well. And Our Edge?? I know in the old days they ran more than they trained, but it would be one thing if he loved racing and was doing well. but dead last in the Travers, and a week later, the Pennsylvania Derby :?: I dont know the guy, or the horses, but if he is dead last in a big race, why would you run him in another relatively tough race a week later?? again, I dont know NZ personally :roll: but Im losing respect for him, in what I follow of racing. Just curious for others opinions :)

Thought this might be about New Zealand racing. Anyway not a Nick Zito fan but I guess he thinks DaTarra will someday recapture his glory and steal away on an easy lead and win one. As for the other I assume he didn't do much running in the Travers for some reason and Zito had misguided faith in him.
