Anthony wouldnt ever geld him & try to get him going well
Make up something like: "he bit a groom so he's gotta go".
Instead of gelding him, knowing full well he wouldn't ever become a commercial stud because their babies are lucky to be decent for 1 year.
After that they're usually toast.
He goes for the easy early money so he can put something on their card before they start spitting the bit and being sore each day.
He knows come Aug/Sept- most of them will be tired, broken down, lame, sour, slow, injured, all of the above etc. always tries to get them ready early & gets them going too fast when it isn't needed. They get no proper foundation under them.
His brought back 3 yr olds are always horrible, he can't keep a horse good for long unless the horse is a beast and overcome the torture.
He was never much of a horseman, but what would him and his wife do for money otherwise, they were going to starve. Tried to leave to go be a politician but realized his mouth is more suited to swindle 1% at a time.
Wife was down as trainer previously and she's picking out horses at yearling sales with clients money.
She has no idea about breeding or confirmation but he doesn't either.
He was always going by "on his breeding page, his half brother or half sister was a world champion".
He blew a bunch of others money when he chased every half bro or sis that no one else wanted for big money.
He wants a great big horse then says "going to have to put him out to fill out, come back at 3, he's TOO big", just keep sending your payments so we can travel everywhere when we're not even needed.
I am not sure what this horse specifically has to do with your above gripes on AMac, other than he was a bad buy as a racehorse. He just got this horse late fall (at least I would assume so, as this horse sold in HBG as a racehorse to one of his owners). No one prior gelded him, presumably for the same reason (bloodlines and consequent perceived worth). Regardless, he doesn't race like a horse with much try. At his age now, the damage might be done if that's indeed the reason for his lack of effort. I can't see Luther improving him, even if he does geld him, but I tend to doubt it. Probably at this point, most value is as Amish stud, or maybe one of the poorer state programs.

It is customary to give winning driver and trainer a breeding from winning horse when they win a big race such as hambo, breeders crown.
Thus another form of revenue for drivers.

 Completely absurd and annoying. On the brink for me of being eliminated for it.

Here's the link.... https://youtube.com/live/gJghpd6oCbo?feature=share
Also, I'd like to invite the previous version of "Gaagoots" on, you know the one who buddied up with that woman Catherine?
Also, Bob The Knob Kole Hanover, I KNOW you have my number since you've stalked me to the point of felony.
There's a couple other guys from here, specifically from the Saratoga area who contacted me and are really cool. One is an owner up there who's been fucked over by some names you all know. I think I told Trigger last night we should keep it one at a time for now. I know this goes against all Plop culture, real people actually talking like people.
Nice work Mike, Thank You!.... One at a time, sure...and of course it will be recorded, duh for those that don't get how YouTube works.  But as for anonymity, obviously we'll know at least your screen name, however if you want to stay all the way anoymousey on the show...no worries, done and we'll personally guarantee to honor your privacy post show!

The rising cost of fuel and other petroleum products isn't even close to peaking out yet IMO! I wouldn't be surprised to see an additional 40%.

Thanks for reply, I forgot about Topsham & Cumby
The fairs in Maine are really awesome, I don't mind spending extra on food for the kids as they love going around getting diff stuff. They deserve it after going to school all year. When they come to the races with me, they always have a good time. I hope they enjoy it like I did when my parents took us as kids.
So thankful they introduced us to Maine that way, was tough to make it there when we were based out of Seattle, always went to the PNE at Hastings racetrack in Van, Calgary stampede(no standardbred racing, they race standardbreds in diff riding shit but the whole event is so crazy. 2 casinos right there, 1 on the grounds and other just outside the gate.
Elbow river casino just put of the gate, great buffet when playing poker there all night. I think it's Midnight they bring out the spread for everyone free of charge.
Don't have to leave when hungry and in a good cash game or tourney.
Definitely getting to Maine this summer, making it a priority
Let me know when and what fair you will be attending this summer. Maybe we can all meet and watch the races. The Fryeburg Fair is the last one of the season and the most popular.
