At 2/5 in the 2nd Hambo Elimination for 2018 with Six Pack.  One of the all-time botched drives from beginning to end.  Only needed to finish in the top 5 to go on.

He starts every year with over 100 horses (almost all trotters). He is a great trainer and has them ready, even with layoffs, but the horses end up suffering for it. So many of his horses have fewer starts than most, and then they disappear.  Very very few do well with one that he sells in a sale. I'll assume they end up back in Sweden, and the few that have become sires have not proven much.

  • dougie: I don't really know a lot about Mike P. but I support his cause 100%. I admire his humanity toward these abused animals. I now know that there is a very minute number of people in harness racing who really care about their horses once they are not able to race/breed anymore. Those who don't carfe deserve their place in hell.

  • Trigger: Dougie, you're not boring, a touch naive at times i.e. the no show looney tunes  ngc3 but it gives you the cojones to be a risk taker too, hopeful winner!  Be rlevant to the discussion, don't plan your thoughts, a couple of bullet points and do it!  ;D
