Manila was trained by Leroy Jolley and I think John Veitch trained Dr. Carter.
Scotty trained a zillion good horses over the years. Cryptoclearance was one of my favorites. Mac Diarmida, who was previously mentioned, was a champ when that meant something. He defeated truly good horses like Majestic Light and Johnny D when winning those once great races, ruined by the BC, in the Fall of 1978.
