Amateur Races??

So long as the horse was not on the Steward's List during 2024 for afib or lameness, he should be able to race up to 3 times/month and win up to a maximum of $25,000 during his 15th year.  Not sure why this has not been considered one of the possibilities for him?  He certainly can go with the MADC horses.

The reason he was scratched is listed as veterinarian.. injured.. per the usta entries and results page.

Which like most usta things, mean nothing..

There's a Facebook thread somewhere that indicates, per the horse's groom, he was scratched to guarantee he wouldn't end up at a bad end, and is heading to retirement in Michigan. No idea if that is accurate.

He had no business even entering him in a $5000 claiming race, did he want to get rid of the horse that badly?

  • MTP1972: I never had enough deductions to itemize so even if I was able to claim my losses it only would have been a small percentage. Thankfully the IRS finally changed the law regarding taxable tickets.

  • MTP1972: One year a long time ago I cashed IRS tickets for some people totaling around $40,000 making around $4000 doing so. I picked up thousands and thousands in losing tickets, kept programs and a daily log of how I did. When I filed my tax return that year and claimed them as losses I was audited by some old fart who didn't know shit. At the end of the audit he said I showed enough proof I lost the money back and he'd submit it in his report. 6 months later I get a notice from IRS saying my proof wasn't good enough and included a tax bill of $12,000, which I never paid because after 10 years they forgave it. Unforunately my state piggybacked on it and sent me a tax biil for $3200 which I disputed and they kept adding on interest and late fees. Finally 2 years later my bill was up to $8000 and they sent a wage attachment to my employer si I got fucked big time.

  • MTP1972: Back at Garden State Harness I hit an $11,000 trifecta for a $1 on a horse, Speedy Wright, driven by Mark Kesmodel paid $11 to win. The exacta paid $60 but a real bomb finished 3rd. Unforunately at that time if your winnings were over $5000 they automatically took out 28% + another 3% for NJ State Tax leaving me with only $3800 from a $5500 ticket.

  • Trigger: On 9/14/91 Yonkers Race 6 I bet a pick 4, put $80 in.  I used like 6 in the first leg, like a perceived dummy as 1/5 shot won.  I hit it and it paid @$9k.  The storyis in the trivia thread here.  Not my biggest score ever, but craziest for sure.

  • MTP1972: I have alot of strategies and theories on multi-race wager s but rarely play them because I hate investing alot and getting knocked out in the 1st leg. I used to play alot of Pick 3's at Meadowlands years ago by beating a heavy favorite in the 1st leg.

  • Trigger: And losing most of my big wagers.

  • Trigger: We could take down a track if we worked together, otherwise that's out.  My biggest issue last yr was virtual stable laziness.  You leave a horse like Meshuggah in becaus his drives were fucked.  But I left too many in and didn't refresh that much once built.
