Well put CtC.
Chris I didn't want to push this string down just yet but to answer your question about who is Ralph Nicks. He was the longtime assistant to Bill Mott. Kind of like Dallas Stewart to Wayne Lukas. Where is the parallel there. Stewart trained the dam of Shaniko, Sapphire n Silk--a very fast runner who won the LeTroienne at CD. She kind of fell apart by the end of the year-I bet her in the Test. But make no mistake she was a huge talent.
Nicks worked the Kentucky circuit for Mott and was the on-track trainer at Gulfstream. Mott spent most of his days at Payson. Nicks has had his hands on good horses before and comes from a family of horsemen just like none other than who???
