Like him/the operation or not, this is beyond an impressive accomplishment. Under 75,000 starts and 16,000 wins. More than twice as many wins than Virgil Morgan Jr. who is second place with just over 7800 wins. Compared to the t-bred side, Burke is way ahead of Steve Asmussen who is approaching 11,000 wins, and trails trainers Todd Pletcher, Steve Asmussen, Bob Baffert, and Bill Mott in earnings.
Like I said, like him/the operation or not, whether you think he's good for the business/sport or not, and soon-----his operation and accomplishments are simply unparalleled. While he has his critics, and virtually anyone successful does, they have done what nobody else has, and in all likelihood, never will.
