Skinner's meal ticket is with Ake now.

Jason Skinner has a 12-horse stable that run mainly on the Dover/Harrington circuit. He co-owns some of them but is lucky to break even on them with expenses, so losing the horse was a big deal.

Jiggy Jog S will definitely run in the Breeders Crown Open Trot because the purse is much higher than the Mares Open, so off of last night's effort, Call Me Goo will most likely be the favorite in the Mares Open Trot.

She's so versatile, handy, etc. As soon as her cover cleared, she just switched gears and went on. So smooth, fluid, etc. I really enjoy watching her. And as soon as she cleared, slow it down and do as little as possible to win. Won it easy, under wraps, in hand. Last half in 57 and last quarter in 27 and 3 is a paid training mile for her, LOL. Ake is an excellent horseman, and an excellent manager. She is being handled, pointed, babied as much as she can, and prepped for the BC. As easy as she can win, that's how easy she is going to win to get her peak, primed and ready to go for the BC. I am looking forward to seeing her in the BC. I'd love to see her race for a few more years.

Ake knew he couldn't win, so why not go for as much money as you can.

Post by: Grandstand Handicapper on September 30, 2024, 11:02:19 AM
It would not have made a difference. Ake couldn't win. If he tried all out he would run a good risk of not getting second. In this case, go for as much as you can, second place payday when you are second best....and the gravy.....you have an easy race, more in the tank....and you help manage your stablemate for her ultimate goal.

So, how would you know how he does on his expenses? Are you, his accountant?
Title: Re: Ake and Call Me Goo back in tough spot after 8 post scratch Jug day!
Post by: Arrive7100 on September 30, 2024, 12:14:25 PM
I'm not his accountant but follow the Delaware circuit on a regular basis and know how much his horses earnings are. With normal expenses for training, most of them break even or lose money. In horse racing way more owners lose money than make money, you don't have to be an accountant to figure that out.

I hope she trots in the Breeders Crown instead of run.

This is why uncoupled entries are terrible. Imagine betting on goo not being aware that the drivers best interest is not trying to win

Maybe. Maybe not. That is your subjective opinion. In a gambling game with public money on the line, it's not a fair shake. This game should be about gambling first then ake's best interests 30th.

That's for certain! You know how to make a small fortune in the harness business? Start out with a big fortune! LOL.

True, nothing more than my opinion, and I am pretty confident that Ake's horse was not beating JJS under any circumstances. If Ake went all out---to try and win, not on a suicide mission just to get JJS beat---there's just no way she's beating JJS. Two different classes of horses right now. As far as the gambling aspect, while you are right, it's just not going to be absolute in situations like this. No matter what you do.

Boy you dont look at numbers  ngc3 I believe it was SKINNER WHO MADE HER THE MONEY ON HER CARD RESPECTABLE WELL OVER 500.000, AS I Have SAID BEFORE Not Bad for a Small Stable trainer , Shes picked up 2 checks 1 of which AKE GOT 1/2 OF THE PURSE PLUS DRIVER /TRAINER % NOT BAD BUSINESS ON HIS PART AND Shes  racing for much bigger purses then with Skinner, I also said this was a SALE IN THE MAKING and I was right THE
GOOGOO GAAGAAS ARE WANTED OVER THERE  ...As it should be SHES A NICE MARE NO JIGGY BY NO MEANS AND AKE WOULD HAVE PICKED UP MORE MONEY FOR HIMSELF HAD SHE BEAT JIGGY , Sorry but ya gotta give credit where Credit is due . Skinner has a Knack for Babies like it or not . Im sure his Training Bills are a hell of lot cheaper then AKE'S ..So as far as a meal ticket I DONT SEE HOW HIS 5% WAS HIS MEAL TICKET GOING FOR THE MONEY HE WAS RACING FOR  The Owners behind SKINNERS BACK  were in the makings of moving her to AKE for 3 weeks prior to her leaving FACTS WHEN IN THE DECENT WORLD OF HARNESS RACING THEY SHOULD OF LET THE KID CONTINUE TO RACE HER SERIES OUT LET ALONE LET THEM KNOW WHAT THEIR PLANS WERE  ..HE DESERVED THAT MUCH  BUT BUSINESS IS BUSINESS AND THIS BUSINESS IS A CUT THROAT BACK STABBING ONE AND A SALE IS A SALE  IM UPSET I DIDNT GET A SHIRT  ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3

Actually, according to the program, the ownership didn't change or at least hasn't been updated.

Just went back and checked the program, you are correct. Not sure why Ake needs another trotter he'll only run 8 times a year unless it's for future breeding purposes.

I understand the sentiment, but part of gambling is understanding a good driver/horseman isn't going to absolutely gut and/or injure his horse trying to defeat a horse they can. not. beat. If Jiggy Jog had shown any weakness at all I am sure Ake would have capitalized on it.

Very true. While the oblivious general public won't and can't know (without the education), the informed general public knows this. Ake can own a piece of one and not the other, and that's why he'll drive that one, but for the most part, neither driver on stablemates are going to do anything foolish to the detriment of each other. I always wanted to see two horses, same ownership, same barn/trainer, in a real battle down the stretch. Then show me the same thing with different ownership. All things considered.

Like I said, I really enjoy watching JJS race, and if everyone is racing for second, so be it. At least up until the BC, LOL.
