Fight the Foe (classic)
Rambling Storm (one tough, fast, SOB)
Courtesy of Bob Pandolfo:
" The greatest claim may have been Fight The Foe. Claimed for $10,000, Fight The Foe climbed the class ladder and became one of the top pacers in the sport. In 1979, he won the Cardigan Bay Pace at Roosevelt Raceway, defeating a quality field that included Rambling Willie, Newt Lobell, Nickylou, Seedling Herbert, Mostest Yankee, Wizard Almahurst and Sirota Anderson."

Ted Wing was a terrific horseman. He should have put the cigarettes in the garbage many years earlier.

I remember Martin Scharf claimed Bad Bert for $200,000. I don't remember if someone had ever claimed him for more than that. Just don't remember.

Went 19 for 19 that first year.

				I believe Pena turned Presidential Order into an Open pacer. 15K if i remember right. Lou also claimed a Mare trotter. I don't remember the name. She went on to win PA 60K Opens & i think was claimed for 10K.

				Wasn't REAL JOKE a cheap claimer that started pacing out of his skin for Lou?

No. He was 50K at the Meds. He was a solid horse to begin with.
