I suspect their auto entries are being actively marketed at the moment, and I can see them logically going to whoever runs the Oaks in AsLMS and TUSC and the third being a Nicolet/Ihara/ANO WEC entry, which isn't going to realistically be competition for the sort of entry on the cards from KCMG.

Agree about the overstretch concern, but presumably with the right partnering approach they've got the scalability to do it. Jacques Nicolet has never come across as anything other than very shrewd, and looking at how he's deepening his managerial bench I think they'll be fine.
