A good list, and I can't argue with anybody you put on it.

But what kind of award or category does Zito's handling of his "five superstars" over the first two legs of the Triple Crown.

I agree that they weren't mismanaged to the point of health concerns.

But who in the past 20 years has done less with more, than what Zito did? Those five horses were even money as a group to include the Derby winner according to oddsmakers. His best finish there was 7th, beaten 12 lengths. Yesterday, he ran three back and he got one to come in 4th, beat 15.

To not even hit the board with that group is an awful job of training.

Anybody else out there sick of his line afer each race about "we're blessed. Sometimes things don't go your way. We'll be back. Its a humbling game." etc.etc.etc.

If he really is in the group of juicers, he is going to hell for his constantly invoking God and blessing in his interviews. If you want to cheat, go ahead, take your chances and try it, but then don't ask for a blessing on top of it.........
