Case back in NY

[oldjohn123]

Another convicted felon with cheerleaders. Sick.

He is mentoring some of the young drivers,and I heard him tell one you are doing great don't mess up like I did.

[hoosierboy]

Great news, if true. The man can roll out of bed and outdrive most of these guys right now.

Case was great in his time…. He won’t compete with the current drivers at Yonkers.

[Dostoevsky]

Just in time for closing night at Yonkers.

[Cashout]

      He’s basically toast      Hard to feel bad for him, he did it to himself

He could still do well at one of the B tracks like Monticello.

I dont think he could compete with Mike or Greg Merton. That puts him down to third best.  Look at Mcgwire Sowers for example.  Mcgwire was average at best 5th or 6th at Monticello when he was there. He moved to Maine and he's crushing Case. My point being you guys need to stop drinking the foolish cool aid of Case. He was at one time the best in the game at the time. That time has looooooooooooong past. He spent his best years high as a kite and or behind bars.   He's still nothing but a piece of shit just like when he was younger. Only difference between Case now and case of the 90s is he's added atleast 50 pounds and he's lost the "golden hands" he's still a drunk waste of space.   Trust me in the 90s id kill to have Case drive my horses. Call me old school whether he was high or whatever excuse you want to give him he tried to kill another human being who was his wife and he was supposed to love and protect her.  Case is 100 percent an example of what you DON'T want your son to grow up to be.  You people that praise him like he's something special make me sick. Even when he was "special" he was a drug addict drunk piece of shit.  Take Case out of harness racing he is a piece of shit nobody.. oh wait thats all he is in harness racing.  I remember when he first came back Scarborough downs i think it was correct me if I'm wrong they made a big deal of it.  The outside people  looking in saw a racetrack promoting a drug abusing woman abusing attempted murderer. And we all wonder why harness racing is declining.  Guys like Case.. Allard.. Surick.. Banca.. many others give racing a black eye.  Yes I get it he went to jail and served his time I get it.  He does deserve to work and make a living in my opinion that should be McDonald's or Burger King not a race bike.  Harness racing is a privilege not a right.

Spot on

Over there he could reunite with Andy and get envelopes and when he stiffs everyone would just say he stinks now.

[gh2009]

His drives would mainly be big longshots so there wouldn't be any need for an envelope. He has enough trouble just trying to compete in Maine and only gets 4 or 5 drives a day at Pllainridge, at Yonkers he'd be on the bench most of the time.

Monticello. Not Jonkers.

[Cobalt Kenny]

I love Casey, but, said to say, his time has come and gone. He is a mere shell of himself..Father Time gets all 

[gh2009]

Missing so much time tends to erode your skills along with father time and gaining weight.

[Cobalt Kenny]

1000% correct 

[Harnesspower]

You have to understand, case was also driving gassed up horses during that time, he had the “power” and with that comes along the ability to dictate other races when you might necessarily not have power so you could leave and get hiked here and there or get the top and Casey could and would return the favors….these drivers aren’t running , the horses are so like any track around the country, show me the top 3 drivers and it corresponds to the top 3 trainers, or beards for that matter…do you think Banca or engblom didn’t help Bartlett? Burke or Takter helped gingras?

On another note—I still can’t understand how engblom has any horses racing in canada with his legal PEDs troubles here in the states….

As someone who lives in Maine and has chatted with Casey at the now defunct Scarborough Downs, i'd like to offer a different perspective. I believe no  one knows more than Casey how he ruined his life and career due to that horrible crime he committed. I was there on his return to "the Downs". That track had the biggest crowd i'd ever seen there in the last 10 years. Lots of "hugs and kisses" and "Good Luck Walter" peppered the crowd. I have learned a lot on HORSEPLOP. I have heard many of you tell me about the drunks, wife beaters, race fixers. drug addicts, horse abusers, beards, crooks, etc. While i'm not 100% sure everything that's mentioned is true, it would seem that almost all of these folks never had their day in court. From what you tell me, it just goes on and on. With very few, if any. receiving any justice. Yet Casey has. He was convicted and served his time. As for his driving skills, he is now just a average driver. Maybe enough to make a living. If I were advising him, I'd tell him to stay close to home and avoid the zoo at Yonkers Raceway. He'd drive all longshots. He's better off doing what he's doing now.
