Harness Racing / Re: Big Ranger« Last post by Kenny on Today at 12:00:24 PM »I agree. I can see if you have a horse like this and a once in a lifetime chance to win the Hambo you might want to go with a top driver, but at the very least you have the courtesy to call Gillespie and explain to him what is going on. To show up unannounced to take the horse is very classless. And throw the guy a few $$$, he made the horse what he is and deserves it. What a terrible way to treat someone. The industry lost a chance for a great story. 43
Harness Racing / Re: Trainers+ who have helped ruin The Sport of Harness Racing« Last post by Kenny on Today at 11:58:41 AM »that's a great point! Trainers and drivers did not ruin the sport by the way,, for good horses the sports never been healthier. You fail to grasp it is a house of cards. It is not healthily when the money is handouts not customers. 44

Harness Racing / Re: Mark Ford's Hambo letter« Last post by seen2much on Today at 11:54:38 AM »Owners have no control of what their trainers do. Being president of the SBOA and on the board of the USTA I really don't think he would risk all that knowingly that his trainer was using EPO. ![]() Ignorance is not a defense 46

Or fail to mention Merriman drove for 2 months! Are you desperate? TOO FUNNY! And your numbers are wrong! This is why you are known as Idiot 2. The top 37 drivers was taken from the USTA. That covers every track. MORON ![]() 48

I also heard RG gets % of what the horse makes. So I dont believe the article is accurate. How did i know Ranger was going with Annette the next morning before RG knew about it. The person that told me thought he was sold and that was the reason at first. RG story let him tell it like he wants it told. Bottom line RG deserves all credit for the horse.

How does Aaron get between places? Does he have a drivers license after his last incident?? Add to the fact that Aaron and Beckwith have missed tons because of major spills on the track! When you’re young and hungry, it worth it! Ronnie Wrenn Jr. is now getting grand circuit drives! Aaron isn’t and the Plainridge guys aren’t getting grand circuit drives. Switzer Jr. is driving Maine too. 50
Harness Racing / Re: Big Ranger« Last post by Harness racer on Today at 11:21:27 AM »Would love to hear the owner's side of the story. The truth will be somewhere in between that and RG's story. I'm guessing they didn't like the mile he put on Big Ranger for no real reason and said that's enough before he burns him out. Just a guess.
