As for not going to CA, guys like Frankel and Baffert win grade 1's all the time with their assistants saddling their horses.

Pletcher is probably the best I have ever seen when it comes to placing his horses.
Nick Zito started out as a kid from Brooklyn who walked hots.
He evolved into a man who has won all three classics, the Travers, and just about every Grade One in NY run on the dirt.
Hes trained a champion and won a Breeders Cup race.
His accomplishments speak for themselves, and every year he comes back with more horses at the highest level.
Hes in the hall of fame for a reason.
Hes a credit to the sport, and to anyone who wants to try and work themselves up from nothing to something.
You, Nostradamus, I suspect very strongly are working on the exact opposite, and I have no doubts that you will succeed!
