[quote=jrajf;665552]I have watched this horse for ages..since Contessa got rid of him after having high hopes and dealing with the horses bad bad bad gate habits

robert young has trained him since and uses him as a check cashing macine ..running him protected with no shot of winning but at a level to just cash a minor award usually 4th for 1400 dollars..

In the race you refer to he was assured of 3000 for just entering

this horse does fill a lot of races for ny secretary as evidenced by the greys only condition run at Aqueduct last winter.(which he somehow lost but then popped up and won his next race).

The point is this is the only horse this trainer has and he seems to be only pointing the horse for minor awards. He makes money for him which is the point of the game..Mr young just has a different idea of money.

It apppears he loves the game and is able to stay solvent with this horse.

this is further evidenced by his refusal to ever ever put the horse in a claiming race

It takes all kinds.

Point: He did not deserve to be in this race period regardless of your nice comments about Mr. Young. What is next the Woodward?
