A couple of years before he built his stable of rich owners and fast horses, Joe Anderson was kicking ass in Chicago as a catch driver.  I followed ChiTown racing very closely from the mid 1960s until the greedy track owners and crooked politicians killed it.  I never saw anything like what Little Joe did before or since.   He brought in long shot after long shot for all kinds of trainers.  Horses would just GO for him.  He could make speed with a three legged donkey.  It's no wonder he dominated once he got all those good ones to train himself (Falcon Dakota, Big Tom, The Big Dog, Million Dollar Bye, Ohyouprettything, Popcorn Penny, Pacific Flight N, No Control N, Vance Romance, Jules Jodoin, Next Bonus A, Columbia Nipper, Duncan MacLeod, Droppin'thehammer, etc).
I think you need to go back and look at a program joe was ok with others his all he had to do was point in right direction
