Ford horses finish 1st 2nd and 5th. 3 entered at yr tonight and 3 checks gained. What happened to his recommendation to cxl meads ? I guess his runners are exempt but only when they are racing at yr.
Joke…can’t make it up…

Engblom wins 2-3 races every night at Yonkers. Yet people still enter their horses. If everyone would get together and not put their horses in to race at these tracks knowing that there racing for 4th and 5th place and there’s only 2 horses in each race. These race tracks would start banning these crooks no different from devita estrada Burke bongiorno bako etc etc etc

The trouble is a large majority of trainers are happy to run 2nd-5th behind the juicers.

Better to race for 2nd or worse $$ at decent purses than nothing at all.

Everyone Or everything that doesn’t work out. Is not dumb

We went to 900 k on him. Erv advised us to stop. It was three of us in partnership. Doug myself and a farm in Indiana . We went 100 k over our set price for him

They wood not let anyone test the horse for stallion duties

We had three vets including dr j for her advice and look horse over

She’s one of the very best.

She said it’s a big gamble at big numbers. We knew it was going to a big price . . We went to 900 k like I said

Even though

Luther and Harris. Were the last two fighting it out

Sometimes one chases a dream

It didn’t work out. Doesn’t make them dumb

Just unfortunate

Jmho

Luc..in at 900 makes you astute. the folks in at $1.8...less so.

There's nowhere to go with this horse right now but down. Unless....how high-going can they make him? A Roadster stud might get them close!

Yea, that's the ticket. Boycot the box. Show those racino owners who is the boss.

Ake knew there was something wrong with the horse or he wouldn’t have sold him. Dumb dumb Luther thought he was smarter than Ake and donated 1.5 million.

More money was paid for him than every other horse on the card

There is no way this horse will recoup what they paid for him. Frankly, if he was ready to stand when they bought him (which I thought was the plan), and somehow was the heir to the throne of the Chapter Seven line as a sire, he would still be hard pressed to break even for his owners for several years. Now, he'd have to perform a water-to-wine-level miracle to eat into that deficit.

It's good he's back racing competitively given he couldn't keep up with ordinary, condition-types at the Meadows pretty recently. A little confidence might do him some good..but what the hell is their plan for him now? This isn't exactly the time of the season for the legitimate free-for-aller types.
