West Point, McLaughlin split

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Mclaughlin is having by far the worst year of his career from an ROI standpoint on the betting dollar.

He showed a flat bet profit in 9 out of 12 years from '96 through '07.

This year he's losing at double the takeout on dirt - and not doing much better on turf. A combo of his name getting too big and his horses not producing as well as in many years past.
