Default PGIACO: Marina Market today..

Dr. Giacopelli and "Super G" (Sciacca) send Marina Market in the featured 8th today to open the Big A meet... Best of luck to this clever claim that has successfully taken the place of Wood Winner for Paul and Gary as a constant check earner..

And hats off to the Round One who got Mocha Shake into the winner circle at Belmont Sunday... The 2yo filly paid $27.20 as Gary won with her in her first start while saddling his first horse with new owner Bobby Flay.

DRF makes no mention of a claim. The race before the change was an OptCl and the horse has an N meaning he wasn't entered to be claimed. Private acquistion maybe?

Who? Marina? Gary and Paul have had for a long while now. Over a year... Took him off Albertrani for $35k and have done well with him. Probably earned $100k for Paul...

DRF shows the horse as "previously trained by Gullo Gary P." prior to his race on March 20th.

The horse was claimed as you say but was trained by Gullo before switching to Sciacca for the March race. The horse won that day running a lifetime best, but has tailed off dramatically since, picking up a few checks while not coming close the the winner's circle.

Accept on faith that I know the situation pretty well. Gullo is listed from when Gary was sitting out Dec-Mar. Most of Gary's horses were with Gullo during that period.
