Harness Haters Lay-off, but Tony Morgan, one of the best drivers in the country and a dominant force in Chicago for years, left to go to Dover Downs earlier this year. This guys won at a 40 to 50% his first couple of weeks there and no one was hammering this guy, well a few of us were.
This would be like Johnny V. showing up in So Cal. and nobody knows who he is and they let him win for a couple of weeks before they hammer down the odds.

i dont follow the harness game but im sure most know who tony morgan is considering he was one of the leading drivers in the country for wins year in and out for the past how many years? maybe ya caught some prices but i doubt the guy was unheard of there@dover, im sure they have simulcasting there and watched this guy clean up at maywood, balmoral, sportsmans, hoosier and hawthorne for a number of years
