Hilarious you run down other big time trainers but Per gets a pass.
The first two years away from Takter he couldn't win a fixed race. Hooked up with Josh Marks and BOOM 2nd in the country![/quotePretty common theme.

Not saying he can't train one. Saying he isn't racing on hay and oats. But who is?
Josh is the armchair expert's ace up the sleeve of anyone who starts winning races. The guy has hit a big hot streak because he had horses ready and the condition sheet played to what he had. When Takter split up the barn it was not supposed to be nor was it even close to an even or fair split. Jimmy was overloading Nancy as much as possible right up front to stack the deck and set the stage. It worked. Per had a role to play and he played it. Now the pendulum has swung a bit and he's picking up horsepower and wins. Nothing shocking here. He won't keep up these numbers for long and it will return to the norm over time. But for those who have to say he's cheating, they will say he's grabbing while the grabbing is good, he's stealing money, Josh is behind all this, and so on.
Like clockwork was simply classified well?
