Latest Catalano-Calabrese bust up..
 
From the Gulfstream backstretch this morning... For perhaps the 138th time, Frank Calabrese has dispersed horses from Wayne Catalano to a handful of trainers after yet another public screaming match.

Yeah, FCC must get fed up with losing 60% of the time. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Unbelievable. Wonder what happens to the one's owned mutually and those on Wayne's farm? Those owned by Wayne and Leving's wives etc. etc. I believe FCC expects to win at GP the same he does at Arlington only the comp is stiffer. This is one big mess for both of them this time. And most likely, like always they'll be back together soon. I also expected J.R. Smith Jr. to be back from Saudi Arabia soon and he's the only fit for Frank I can see.

jwkniska 01-25-2009 09:52 AM

More drama than Pam Anderson and Tommy Lee. :rolleyes: Can they just go to couples therapy next time and spare everybody?

The quote "He has character flaws" from the DRF article is absolutely classic. Catalano is a really really nice guy.

Yea but he won't take any of Frank's crap unlike the rest of the FCC posse. And most everyone in Chicago knows these two have very little in common if anything outside of racing.

If Wayne wanted to play hard ball, he could open up the Calabrese closet and the skeletons would come tumbling out. Although I'm sure that he isn't the only trainer in that position and keeping your mouth shut is a pre-requisite for that job.

Aren't most of the skeletons out and quietly whispered? Not sure anyone wants to hear details. If he wants to make some $$$ how about selling some of his stock. Better not give Rivelli crap either or an old man may get knocked out. Where is Leving going now?

I'll 2nd that about Cat in a heartbeat, as he's always been good to me. Guess his supposed character flaw (but what I'd call smart racing) is that he wants to win races instead of putting in higher races that he knows the horse can't win (heard that argument between them over there multiple times).
