He has horses for all classes. Programs usually packed with his horses- Not now??
-
He has 12 horses running today including a qua.
Purse vacuum he is, give it some time...
Soon he'll be racing only against himself. ngc3
-
almost all went off at big double-digit odds, and none finished in the top 3. This is far from the norm that you see from Burke's Stable
-
While he has the most starts for any trainer @ the Meadowlands, slightly more than double the starts of trainers 2 thru 5.
Over the last year he averages about 6 entries per card.

Their purses are a fucking joke 11.wj
Crook or not, he's tactical, you have to pay your dues with Gural and other than stakes he has horses that would prefer the mile.

Good. I think that's a good thing. Why? Ask him. Look at various classes and you'll see purses that are higher elsewhere. Does he keep a stable/race regularly in Toronto? He'll race where they can make money. Racing at the Meadowlands is still not easy. Higher level of compliance in my mind. His operation is so big it gives him a ton of flexibility, opportunities, etc. Plus, he can also race a 20k claimer for 10k and get away with more often than most, and he's got X more to back that one up.

Seems to race in a lot of places. Must be wheellbarreling the money to the bank.

Some interesting numpers. Burke only wins at 14% at M1 & 17% AT YR. Yonkers should be harder where Engblom dominates. Blackler, & Dilloian rarely race at M1...but win at 27% & 23& at YR.
Cullipher wins at 17% at M1 & 21% at YR.
Engblom 18% at M1 & 23% at YR.
Bongiorno 23% at M1 & 17 at YR.
