Mike was a "last minute" driver on one of my good trotters, as Casey didn't show up.  The trotter was in very deep, but Gags gave him a rail-skimmer and won at 45-1 with him.  I did not have a penny on him.  When we took the photo he asked if I had bet on him, and sheepishly, I had to tell him "no"... which was the truth.  That was my only interaction with him, but he certainly gave my horse a good steer.
Sounds like Mike, I was in no way trashing him, Just recounting what happened to with him. Hall of Fame talent NO DOUBT!

Sad the game has forgotten about him but those of us in the know havent ;D

Race fixing , wearing a wire on and off track, entering federal witness protection until he was sick and came out a year before he died.  Great horseman and I am in no way speaking ill of him   but facts are facts   You probably didn't know, sorry
I got ya…I remember that.
