Maybe the horse was so good it won in spite of him.

As I recall he was listed as sole owner of the horse, but that doesn't mean it was his horse or his money, probably was just a beard.

Even if it was a beard, Mark didn't know. Same as he didn't know Gillis was buying BB3 from Fishman or the wiretap transcripts that he was made aware of in December of 2023.  ngc3
If you've got a problem with me, you're GUILTY.

Ford is the youngest trainer in history to reach milestones of $10 million, $20 million, $30 million, $40 million, $50 million and $60 million in career earnings. He is also the only trainer to have won a pair of million-dollar races before his 30th birthday.

    If you knew anything about harness racing you wouldn't question Mark Ford's great horsemanship....

I've forgotten more than you'll ever know about harness racing, and I could care less about his old stats. These days he's a below average trainer and has been for years. In your mind everyone is great.

Pacer 2 can hook you up with one and probably has a blow-up doll too.

I do not know him personally but all things I have heard about him, even outside of this recent dustup, leads me to believe he gives absolutely zero fucks about horse welfare. I don't care if he is/was a good trainer on paper; if you believe half what your hear about him he should be out. There is no place for people like that in a sport under immense scrutiny already.

I'm sure he planned to throw him under the bus when needed.  He has others training some for him, Chindano for one.  So why do people pay to put him down as trainer when he has others down on his own?  Seems shady.
