There are a few Burke supporters on here..not many but a couple
Wonder what their thoughts are to his baby fit
Assume the top races/days, in no particular order are Hambo, MPace, NACup, BreedersCrown and Metro. So let's make the Jug the 6th top race in the sport in the U.S.
In Tbreds, maybe Blue Grass Day holds the same place/rank as Jug Day.
Say Pletcher/Repole ship in 4-5 horses. I guarantee you that there are specific Keeneland/Ky State people responsible for every single possible thing Pletcher or Repole needs. Racing Regs, seating, hotels, every single thing.
Contrast that with Burke's experience. Ships 10-15 (more?/less?) as trainer and as owner and has to literally run to straighten business out. All while being cursed at by a security guard.
And Burke critics point out he used coarse language. gtfoh
Dozens of racing officials/breeders/owners/interns/AgStudents from every track in Ohio was there.
How many were assigned to make Burke's day go smooth?
Somehow they all found time to get a photo with Roger Huston.
