Jake--got a call from the PR firm representing the DRF. They want us to tell everybody that EVERY horse who earned a check in EVERY Sunshine Millions race was "DRF-connected"-- their connections buy the DRF, and managed, and in some cases bought, the horses using it.

On a more serious note, Paul is wearing me down. He has said for a long time that we should change our basis for dealing with horsemen (commissions only), to something resembling the Ragozin policy, which lets anyone have all the data they need to buy and manage a million dollar horse for $25. I'm definitely not going to let horsemen have anything resembling that for buys (our CLIENTS don't need the competition for the few good buys, and neither do we), but we may make some alteration in the way we charge for the data people call about using to manage their own horses.

There is a big difference between horses like Hot Wells and Dashboard Drummer, which actually are Ragozin office productions, and those that are "sheet connected". And we're going to take a look at making more horses "TG connected".
