Serious question.
With the amount of horses he has I didn't expect him to be standing at the gallops watching 30 lots working but some of his comments recently have me questioning whether he stands there at all.
Admitted recently when talking about the box breaking down at 5am on the way to the UK that he wasn't aware until much later in the day as he only sees 5am when getting into bed these days.
For a while now he has admitted David Casey does the entries often saying something like I'm sure David will find an opportunity for him David thought he'd be ideal for this etc.
He has an army of breakers and pre trainers in other yards so doesn't involve himself in that end of things.
Admitted yesterday he was surprised at the size of Kopek de borders in the parade ring making me wonder if he doesn't watch the stable stars at home does he see any of them at all.
Is he just a figure head these days ?

I think there has to be some of that in yards of such size, certainly very much a team effort. Yes, the Kopeck comment was very strange.
