Title: Greatest Ending Doing Great After Leaving Anthony MacDonald And The Stable
Post by: Inside The Track on February 28, 2026, 07:13:14 PM
Greatest Ending won again and never looked better. Anthony MacDonald destroyed this horse and gave anyone and everyone a ton of bills. This horse should have never been on a half mile track but remember Anthony knows it all - just ask him. It's so nice to see this horse comeback to what he was supposed to be until Anthony got a hold of him. Someone should make a you tube video on the horses wins since being rescued from Anthony Macdonald and the stable.

i would have to agree, significant downgrade in classification never hurts
now having said that perhaps he should have been there much earlier

When a trainer has to overhype a horse in order to sell shares,this scenario is often repeated!

The fact is the horse loves a 5/8th track and hates a half mile. Anthony knew that just like he knows everything just ask him. This horse is only getting better now that he is away from Macdonald. Making money not just a bill collector for the stable. You want to watch a horse get destroyed just buy shares in Anthony Macdonald and the stable.

Amac has one on Preferred Equine and in his statement he says this:

in training at the time of entry, he trained in 2:53 earlier this week, however he is owned by multiple fractional owners, and they want to sell to concentrate on other holdings

If you a member of The Stable it clearly states that owners have no say in what happens. The horse is a Downbytheseaside 2 year old and so far cannot even get a bid of $2000

Amac lies to so many people it’s probably hard to keep them all straight!

Quietly the horsemen in Ohio love him as they know he's a butcher and 90% of the time he's an auto toss. Gamblers love him as well, they rarely bet anytime he's driving but can't bet enough once any other driver is listed. As for the people that invest, it's their money and they are free to do with it as they please. And Anthony is doing anything illegal, he's trying his best and works hard. If you don't like his videos then don't watch.

1 - he won a condition race at Northfield in 1:53 in the fall
2 - Doc Moore raced the horse in the Little Brown Jug, I guess he’s an idiot too ?

 When you get one with the stable, you need to buy Starbucks for him & his family 3 times daily. Their gas, SUV and meals all paid for through "fractional".
 New sunglasses & hats, not to mention hair dye for him & her many times yearly.
 They all pay for everything, he pockets & writes off trips 10 times yearly.
 I'm sure he would EVER need to travel hours and hours to drive when there are plenty more capable at the track already.

 Just to take $ off the shareholders

I believe this is the horse one of the partners wanted to send to Pocono because he has chronic feet issues.

Post by: SDST2009 on March 01, 2026, 09:45:26 PM
A quick look at current trainer of Greatest Ending's USTA infraction list raises an eyebrow (though dating back a number of years, admittedly). However, that's a nice horse with a lot of back class..and a lot of issues. Sometimes a horse like that just needs a particular program. Maybe they found it.

Also that colt in the sale must be an absolute dog to be culled this early. They gave pretty good money for him IIRC.

What about all of his driving infractions? Excess whipping, inside pylons, interference...I'm sure NOT ONE PENNY comes out of his pocket to pay HIS fines.

  He man the tracks are void of all humans and the game is dead so why not ever talk about real issues like how can you make the game fun again and how can i get other drivers to treat this like a sport and not get angry when being parked out and put a real show on and make it a sport like 80s and 90s bigm

i think they paid $25 k for down by the cowboy
the stud fee is $17,500
that kind of tells you what kind of horse you are getting
its a flyer for the stable, cheap and hope for the best and get lucky
however i will say its a bad look when in October your telling people how you "stole" the horse for $25k and now in early March you toss it to the curb
of course they are not all going to make it but that is usually determined in May/June  not before

It took a while for me to actually meet some of the other owners in the barn where I have been situated over the years before being in partnership with any of them. Distance is a factor among other things.

MR RAIN the racing game cares about numbers that are not real like handle from computer bettors or new owners that will all go broke and most will not reinvest and those are real number with the amount of new people that will pass on horror stories,     once again stupidos running horse racing and the end result is BAD

Almost took the legs out of 2 other horses driving Captain Incredible. A glorified $8,000 claimer with over $300 k invested.  Can’t wait to hear the excuses on the placement. I can guarantee it wont b his fault. Seems to only show the rayban videos when it’s something he wants you to see.

I watched two of his videos and he just talks about great moves and steals at the sales he found but truth is almost no winners and there has to be some pride in any business knowing the key is to make your investors money.   No one really enters a winners circle these days and bottom line is most owners know they will lose but if that was a 100 percent situation no one would buy a horse,,      Very few drivers or trainers buy horses when their journey has ended so there is not much love for the sport from ex horsemen and truth is the game has set up with trainers uping their bills with purse increases and vets are out of control with their bills,,,        One thing i am sure about is AMAC will not look to cut costs for the owner during bad times

Amac is a lot of things, humble and modest aren’t two of them, but I don’t think he’s a crook either. But…he does heavily promote a sport that MOST of us on here love. Just like in any other barn I’m in, I have had both success and failures in thestable. The two most recent I’ve bought into have done quite well though, Tallythetab and Bridgeoverbroadwa y, look them up.

For anyone watching the video you will see how little today's drivers can see directly ahead of them. It amazes me that there are not more accidents.
In the Billy Haughton/Stanley Dancer era all drivers sat upright so they could see what was going on with the horses ahead of them.
I was taught that your eyes told you what the horses and drivers ahead of were doing, your hands told you what your own horse was doing, and your ears told you what was going on behind you.
FYI
If you are sitting say 2nd or 3rd going up the back stretch. and a horse pulls out of say 7th and is coming up on the outside, you can hear him coming long before you can see him. Even with several horses directly behind you, you can pick out the sound of the horse coming fast on the outside.
Class over recess time.

she could become an open mare (maybe not in central Ohio)
