If I ever got back into ownership.. I would have to insist to my trainer.. Who I won't name but uses multiple drivers in Ohio, that Chris would drive for us.. He will succeed even if he loses a few Burke horses to Miller once David moves back here.. Furthermore always bet Miller at Delaware. He is the all time leader in wins there. He got there yesterday for like the last 5 or 6 races.. and won 2 of them including 10-1 in the last race.
One thing you learn when you own horses it's very hard to get the driver you want. The top tier drivers are already taken most all the time. Burke always has him first. Then after that Chris has so many long time connections you better have a trainer that knows him well to get him. The best drivers are very hard to get unless your horse is exceptional.

You are correct.. but the trainer I used to have like I mentioned uses multiple drivers in Ohio but does use Chris quite often.. as my Dad would always say it's not what you know.. it's who you know.

I would love to. Ive been to practically every track in the country and LBJ has eluded me.

It is too bad because I love the fairs, been to them all in Maine,I love 1/2 mile, and I love getting loaded on the infield. I am sure you will be making your user name come true.

Have one more beer for me!
bello you should try 1 time to come here for jug day.. I enjoy your posts and race picks. I have a few tracks on my bucket list as well. Keep after those clowns at rosecroft that was a joke.

At least we got to enjoy a few races before "The (annoying) Voice" took over.

  • Trigger: Amazing day shaping up for PRAT at B@A, the last ride on the 4th with the #1 was masterful.  Ortiz bros putting on a clinic of their own at Keeneland! Betting blind today on FP & IO!   ;D

  • Trigger: Hill Street Blues was great but as a kid I underappreciated it.  The Wire, awesome, the fucking kids were better actors than the adults.  I'm going to binge watch Luther during the holidays, never seen it.

  • Trigger: I think they rename the track after tomorrow - FlavienPrat@Belmont@Aqueduct, holy shit.  Then again my predicts are as solid as mud lately

  • Trigger: NYPD Blue was a great cop show.  Blue Bloods they're all cops and a DA, why not have 3 crooked cousins?  Tom Selleck's (aka Frank Reagan) kids are all 3' 6" on the show.  Was he married to a nocturnal circus dwarf?  ngc3
