Best & Worse Claims All-Time
« on: January 12, 2024, 06:05:25 PM »
I’d offer up Rair Earth for 50k & Run Vera Run 4K for astute claims

Two horrific ones off the top of my head Bad Bert & Mumbo King, both around 300k….

Rambling Storm (one tough, fast, SOB)

Courtesy of Bob Pandolfo:

" The greatest claim may have been Fight The Foe. Claimed for $10,000, Fight The Foe climbed the class ladder and became one of the top pacers in the sport. In 1979, he won the Cardigan Bay Pace at Roosevelt Raceway, defeating a quality field that included Rambling Willie, Newt Lobell, Nickylou, Seedling Herbert, Mostest Yankee, Wizard Almahurst and Sirota Anderson."
