I've read a few articles by Ken Massa, one of which I saved. He definitely superior to many in the field of horseracing.
As far as Barry Meadows I've never read any of his book nor intend to. I've always believed Sartin to be way ahead of most. There is always some petty jealousy among the top in the field, in fact against winners as a whole. Pissed because they take their short comings out on winners. That extends to other field as well such as the New England Patriots and New York Yankees.
As far as Sartin I judge him by those that stood by him verses those with an axe to grind such as Meadows etc. Sartin threw out some members for violating codes of ethnics such as Schmitt and Pizolla. One has to admire any man that has standards and ethnics especially if it has to do with a business. In Sartin's case I believe some of his came because he was pumping out programs at a rapid pace which I believe was because of the computer revolution rapid changes in both speed and memory.
Even Benter and Alan Woods had a fallen out and split, never again to comeback together. Based on the results of both their lives, Bender was correct in ditching Woods.
I used the word jealousy but it could easily be envy etc., whatever it is its not conductive to a winning attitude or success.
