Thanks Steve. Obviously he's a better horse on the inner, but he's doing real well now and if he can somehow shake loose early.....
You have the sequence right. Claimed from Albertrani last fall at Belmont (as listed in DRF) he was with Gary Gullo during Round Boy's suspension. And yes he's earned about 110k since the claim.

The trainer and jock fees come out of that 110k. He doesn't need much vet work, so I'm lucky there. Gary is much less than $100 per day, again lucky there. Marina's made a few bucks and I have 3 win pictures, so he's all good as far as I'm concerned.

OUCH!!!! When I see numbers like that, I realize how lucky I am to have the trainer and vet I have in MD. If my vet bill is higher than $150 month, it's a bad month and there's something dreadfully wrong with the horse. My training bill day rate is a little more than half that posted. Insurance is $180 a year - liability insurance only, no mortality. Gate fees are typically $20 per race. And, I only pay 10% trainer comm on a top three finish money, not on every dime earned. But then again, I don't run for the larger NY purses either.......but I still have a good chance of turning a profit if we manage our horse right and put him/her in the right spots.

The day rate there is high. $75 a day more typical...

I was estimating NY numbers, for what is considered a high end trainer. I heard that Pletcher is like $150 a day or something. So yeah, those numbers are high and I am probably way off
