They are all winning at 98% at Penn National. Never heard of them but apparently they are better at training horses than Bill Mott and Ron McAnally.

Horse racing has become nothing but a cesspool of criminals.

Todd trains Fabulous Strike, that's about all I know.

DrugS could probably give you more info on this motley crue.

DrugS did an interesting couple of posts last summer, I believe, on the relatively performances of the Beatties up at Penn last year. Todd, of course, is the conditioner of the awesome Fabulous Strike.

I think Ryan "Buck" Beattie is the nephew of Todd Beattie and Stephanie is the daughter of former trainer Clarence Minnich. Steph Beattie works together with high % trainer David Wells. Richard is Todd's assistant trainer and his brother

these are the trainers who are syphoning all of the purse $ out of charlestown and penn national, sometime with multiple entries in each race, they can pretty mush take any run of the mill $4000 claimer and turn them into a stakes horse, and commonly take horses who for example may run beyer #s in the 40s and start to run in the 90s, everyone else might as well go home!

oh by the way throw in the Cartagena family of trainers and you pretty much have every winner (slight exageration)--but not much--

Why would anyone possibly care what goes on at Penn National anyways? Especially at this time of the year with Belmont just about to open and the Triple Crown 9 days away from starting? That place is a toy track, and what else would you expect to happen from a toy track?

not everyone follows those great ny tracks like aqueduct and finger lakes....there are other tracks running this time of year, nine days away from the start of the tc, also probably nine days after, too.
