#1 catastrophic breakdown backstretch. If Petrelli ever watched the races from the Mountain he would move to west virginia.

No one was beating lose on lead #3 race 2

Race 3

#4 looks like a big favorite BUT he burns so much money that he is still risky at a short price
#7 Has speed which is hard to find in this rate. It would be no surprise if he breaks on top and waves goodbye dd 47/3410

You called that to the T.

..now back to my mowing

I like me some Mighy Mountaineer every now and again, not nearly as good since Mark Patterson left. Yeah that poor #1 horse in the 2nd race... not good

good info thanks
i believe 'the green monkey' had royal breeding.
never oc knew before how the name came about
16 million, now thats gambling,, my biggest was $200

TGM was by Forestry, a son of Storm Cat. Undridled mare.

We're going to start seeing Flightline's first 2 year olds soon. The big seller at OBS in March was hip 1056- since named Zedan - sold for $10.5 Million. With Baffert now.

The seller of Zedan was Hartley DeRenzo of Ocala, They bought him as a wealing in 2024 for $500,000.

Hartley DeRenzo was also the seller of The Green Monkey for $16Million. They bought TGM for $400k as a yearling.

Harness Racing / Re: Harness Racing on Life Support and Cheating has nothing to do with it

« Last post by seen2much on May 11, 2026, 07:31:50 PM »

I believe cheaters had a lot to do with killing the sport. It leads to way to much chalk and boring races. The Meadowlands empty out many bettors got tired of the cheaters. Yonkers was no different. I had a group of friends that sat in the restaurant. They were small time owners and big bettors. The cheaters ran them out and made them sour.
No one wants to spend hours handicapping to have the cheats blow you away. Horse gamblers want to cash big tickets.
I also had many friends that switch to the runners or poker.
Fast forward to today and yes it is on life support. There are not many fans or bettors left. A few big barns do very well. The majority struggle to stay afloat. I listened to LUCPARK's story. He has money, used big trainers, and lost much money.

Consider starting a up back ADW account elsewhere. Unless you already have had one with everyone, or you're state precluded, the new account promos alone make it worth it.
