I haven’t watched all the Open House video yet, but I was impressed with Jason McG.  And the mediators are always a good addition to the broadcast.  I would love to hear more from Amy too, but I dare say that AMac needs to be absent at the time.  His enthusiasm and energy can overwhelm those who need more reflecting time before speaking.  It is difficult for those types to keep up with how fast he articulates his many thoughts.

Plus he's kind of nasty to her sometimes.  He means it to be funny. But, it doesn't always come across that way.

Totally agree with your Amy observation.  AMac challenged her last year to be more aggressive.  Would love to see her go a training mile with my horses.  She's a huge part of the operation when it comes to the yearlings.  Was also very impressed watching her inspect the horses at the Lexington sale.  She was (hopefully still is) really high on Royal Flush Deo.  We'll see ....

What was Amy's background before meeting Anthony?

"He's kinda nasty to her",  I should let my wife respond to that one!  She's yelled at the TV on multiple occasions in Amy's defense.  

Don't know her background.  I said earlier that I'd like to see her go a trip with my horses.  I second it that I'd love to see her do an uninterrupted video.

Just watched AMac and Jason on a top 10 based solely on Saturday’s sets.  Some observations mixed with a favorite pastime of mine…speculation.

  • AMac talked roughly 90% of the time, even when he made the effort to ask Jason to take over a discussion point.  Cracked me up because we just talked about that phenomenon.
  • AMac grew up in a family of brothers.  I did too.  The kidding and edgy banter is so familiar, so I don’t read much into it.  Now, did I have to learn to be a little more balanced with my wife…that would be a hard yes.  But the kidding is still part of my personality, which she graciously tolerates.  I see the same in Amy’s reactions.
  • I know that SC Upstate didn’t want to see any of his 3 in the top ten (yet), but Highest Honors is there!  Credit to the veterinarian who lightened his load.  No “Big Balls” walk out song for him.
  • speaking of AC/DC, also on the list.   No surprise there. Whatever the New York Connection touches, turns to gold.
