“I haven’t seen something about it,” Reed advised the sports activities community’s John Barr.
“Haven’t been advised about it. I don’t know what’s occurring on the market. I’m extra involved with Richie and what’s occurring with us, and this nice horse, and the way a lot he’s serving to everyone. So, there’s haters on the market, and that’s about how I’m gonna depart one thing like that.”
