I have learned over the years never believe a word Ron Burke says. Like all the other cheats he talks out of both sides of his mouth. Ron Burke does not give a crap about the fans. That is some lol shit.
Sippinonsearoc was in a $20,000 open pace at Scioto on 6/28/25, not an Ohio Sires Stakes, which goes for much more.
It was May 24th and a Buckeye Stallion Series race which go for $20k and is intended for horses that are not good enough for the Ohio Sire Stakes. It is the equivalent of the NY Excelsior, Ontario Grassroots or PA Stallion Series. In fact Burke won 2 other Stallion Series races that day with Swingtown and Harrisburg Heist. Just a guy doing all he can for the sport.
When be raced Sippininsearoc in the BSS he entered him with the intention to win the race. My issue is with trainers who enter their horses in a race where winning is not the no 1 priority. A few years ago for example when Test of Faith was a monster they raced her in an open mates race one day at Pocono. Miller sat 5th or 6th. Moved her on the final turn , paved a final quarter in 25 flat and finished 4th and burned the public’s wallets at 1/9. The next week she won the Graduate final by open lenghts. Miller should have got the rest of the year off. So should the trainer and the horse.
I hope Gural mans the fuck up and tells any drivers who don’t give ther horses the same effort Saturday as they do next week they are no longer welcome at his tracks. Lord knows the judges won’t do shit
Burke races his top horses longer than any other trainer.
