Who allows a 83 track master to race against 64 track masters at the Fryeburg Fair on Saturday?

Sixfingerfreddie with a 83 track master wins today at Fryeburg against 62 track master and back in the same class on Saturday...

Hard to believe Shane Bacon and Mike Cushing allow this shit to happen.

Nice to see you answered your own question. tmbz1

I mean Virgil Morgan has Sugar Instead going in the Montgomery County (OH) Fair for $6500 - the filly is 10 for 10 this year, record of 52 and has almost $700k on her card. There are filly’s in there that can’t break 2 minutes.

Brownmoose bitched and moaned that Charlie May did the same thing. Tough break
for the little guys. They can race where they fit, like it or not. $3K training mile. Why not?

Punching down in life is tacky - especially for someone who can afford to pay $200k for a horse (or whatever the number was)

Some might say the same thing about being jelly of someone else's advantages and good fortune. 11.wp

I just looked the race up. He was dropping from the clouds to enter this race. A Normal condition sheet would not allow a horse to drop this much. He has a rail too. But only a 5 horse field so everyone gets a check. Heck, if he didn't put him in the race wouldn't have filled, If they were smart he should be barred from wagering so they don't end up with a minus pool. It was a sharp move by the trainer. If he fits the conditions, drop him in. Worth trying and it worked. Makes a quick $4200 in 4 days.

Nothing normal about Maine racing which allows trainers barred elsewhere to race in Maine. Also have the worse Race secretaries in the business.

Who is the race secretary at Fryeburg? It is most likely not their full-time job.

its impossible to get horses entered at a fair in the middle of nowhere. extra hard when cumberland ran 35 races the 3 days before fryeburg started. that should not be allowed. there needs to be cooperation and its non existaint. plus cumberland does what it pleases. offered a hi5 wager on a race with only 6 horses against the state rules on hi 5 wagering. until last few years fryeburg ran 10 races a day full fields and rarely a horse making 2 starts at fryeburg. now they run every other day. maines premere meet has fallen from its standing.
-
Don't forget the much larger purses at Cumberland just prior to Fryeburg.

yea, they raced those series and the bottom barrel horses had 10k finals.
