fwiw, here is what AI says: " The horse involved in an incident with driver Ian Kaufman was Lucky Bet. The horse, a trotter, was scratched from a race at Yonkers Raceway around April 17, 2009, following an ambulance trip for an injury. The incident was recorded as a "driver-DNF-must requalify" event, and the horse was diagnosed with a pulled muscle, after which it was to be rested. "
If that much is correct, then, perhaps you can tease out the rest of the info you are looking for?? Good Luck!

I help them pay their mortgage when they race our horses during the year. It's called earning a living. Or do you think they make zero money all year? This time of the year we just break even both us and them, they are not losing or making. You have no idea how well I treat the people who train for me so your comment is worthless. So yes this is fair.
This is all said by the guy who likes the idea of starving people by cutting food stamps and health care subsidies. So please don't lecture me on generosity.
Interesting ending. I’m 55 never had a food stamp in my life and haven’t starved yet. Oh and I grew up with a single mom of 2. She worked a lot but never begged the government for money

Aaron Merriman drove in nearly 90,000 races (17,000+ winners). He should be drunk and high to even be able to do it one more time.  90,000 races  $135m in earnings, 5% = $6.75 mil / 28 years he's grossed an avg of @ $250k, if he's broke it's sad. I'd bet not! I'm no fan boy of anyone. He's a working man, that's undeniable.

Merriman handling it the worst. Driving bad.
Clearly it’s better to drive one high than drunk.

I don't even remember the answers and I was there...
In the early 90's (90-94?) it was a baby stakes night at Yonkers. Many $200k races. Now this part is where my memory might be faulty...
Ian Kauffmann is on the lead going around the final turn and his horse goes down. There is a pile up. 2 horses from the back win and place. There is no 3rd place finisher. The horse that wins breaks across the wire and the 2nd place horse lapped on and gets put up at @90-1. Interestingly the 2nd place horse declared the winner went first over and actually died bad, was way way back.
I believe Prince Ebony won the Open Handicap that night too.
I hit the p4 that night, and that race was the second leg of the p4. Paid $9k. I had to come back Monday to cash (no ss dl on me). That's all I remember.
Does anyone remember that race and can fill it in accurately, get a video?

And remember MCR I said "good", like our old report cards.... Fail - Fair - Good - Very Good - Excellent I didn't want Good to translate to Superstar because I'm not in total disagreement with you. Prince Hal Hanover, man that horse has heart, and took a cheap shot with that dq, and raced after like he actually knew it too.
