Harness Racing / Re: Sunday 7-26-26 Northfield drivers

You left out Justin Irvine who won 6 races. I agree. The drivers there are not the best. Despite that. The track handles over a million on Sunday, Monday, and Wednesdays. And it’s nice payoffs if you can get lucky and beat the chalk.

Handling over a million not exactly something to brag out. Without welfare they'd be toast.

Assuming you mean Dr. Ian Moore, I think the short answer is: he has a significant advantage in the combination of veterinary knowledge, early development, and selection of young horses.

Why he may be winning so many 2-year-old races:

He can identify and correct problems early.
As a veterinarian, Moore likely has a more sophisticated understanding of soundness, growth plates, gait abnormalities, respiratory issues, and subtle problems that can prevent a young horse from reaching its potential.
He probably knows when not to train a horse.
With 2-year-olds, timing is crucial. Some horses need more time physically; others can be pushed forward. The ability to distinguish the two is a major advantage. Research on Standardbreds has found that early training and racing milestones are associated with longer and more successful careers, although the research does not prove that early racing itself causes success.


His horses may be exceptionally well prepared before they ever race.
The best 2-year-old trainers generally don't simply “speed up” a horse. They develop the horse's body gradually—strength, balance, gait, cardiovascular fitness, and confidence. The veterinary research emphasizes the importance of early, properly managed exercise in musculoskeletal development.
He may have a better eye for selecting the right horses.
A trainer-veterinarian can evaluate a yearling not only by pedigree and conformation but also by soundness, movement, physical development, and potential problems. That can make a big difference in a 2-year-old stable.


The quality of the horses is still the biggest factor.
I would be careful not to assume that veterinary expertise alone explains his results. If he has a particularly strong group of well-bred, well-selected young horses, the results may reflect both superior stock and superior management.

My impression is that Moore's greatest advantage may be the combination of “horseman + veterinarian.” A conventional trainer may recognize that a horse is off; a veterinarian may be better positioned to understand why and what to do about it. With 2-year-olds, where small problems can mean losing weeks or months of training, that can translate directly into more horses ready to win early.
Ian is a good friend of mine who is a very smart man know what he's doing. He is not some idiot Horseman that runs around using the latest pre-race it doesn't know horsemanship.

Every trainer has a vet so what's the big deal about Doc Moore. Is he a better vet?
until you realize what trainers have the best vets and pre-race,, you'll continue to lose at the windows.

Harness Racing / Re: Maine Harness Racing is a Joke

I never knew the story that you are referring to until about 5 years ago. Although I don't know exactly what happened, it would seem your memory of what happened is correct. Scarbough Downs is now apartments and private homes with a new shopping center slated to open there soon. The big sign on US 1 is the only remnant of the track.
actually they're better off closing the place was a shit hole the barn area was a total disaster. You drive down to the barn area and people had all their discarded furniture thrown in a field. The barn area was a dump.

I remember quite well the Horseman fucked themselves the owner of the track wanted to compromise but narcissistic Horseman thought they knew better and got it up their ass.

Amazing operation and his work ethic is incredible. The people that say he’s a doper are dope’s themselves.

You are apparently nothing more than a piece of shit non horseman. Obviously you never dealt with a horse that is hit with thumps after racing in extreme heat.

Harness Racing / Re: THE STABLE RETURN ON INVESTMENT

I don't think that I did. Your statement was "you can't help but make money" conditional on correct classification, knowing what you're doing, and soundness.

f you truly believe A+B+C = D, then everyone would be flocking to racing as a money making scheme. It's absolutely not, under even the best of circumstances. You can thing do everything right and still net loss. Way more variables than that.
you can't help but make money if your horse is classified correctly at the right track and he stays sound. You're not gonna make money at Monticello you have to be at Yonkers or Kentucky or some of the other better tracks.
