...does indeed, helped considerably by scrupulous attention to detail. Before settling on the still unnamed $4.25 million colt at Keeneland, for instance, Buying Agent Tom Cooper scrutinized the yearling carefully during his spring tour of U.S. farms. O'Brien then spent eight hours alone with the youngster, watching his mannerisms, his sweating cycle, whether he was bothered by crowds. Three vets, including a heart specialist, performed a physical, with full X rays. "Leg Man" Bob Griffin examined a race horse's most important assets.
