Win Willy's dam was a solid D Wayne Lukas sprinter who once ran 2nd to Xtra Heat in a stake.

Nice win today coming from 16 lengths back after the opening quarter - and posted that nice win in good time.

However, there is some sadness to this story.

If anyone's not familar with his trainer ... he's 142-for-437 (32.5% wins) at Canterbury Park over the last two years. By comparison - the mystical Jamie Ness is just 97-for-389 (24.9% wins) at Canterbury Park over the last two years.

I am sure you have see how Ness's horse seemingly almost stop at the quarter pole now, it is amazing what happens when you can't rely on steriods and other insaneness and you actually have to train a little

Ah, Scav ...

I hate breaking the news to you .... but Ness is 43-for-110 (39% wins) and $2.58 ROI with all dirt horses in 2009.

2009? Are you sure? Maybe my perception was way off, but I have seen some of his horses at Tampa run absolutely horrible.

He's 47-for-146 (32.2% wins) and a $2.18 ROI with all starters at Tampa this meet.

He was 2-for-48 last October - and struggled for a short time before coming to Tampa.

This is why I say things like this for you to confirm or deny.

Thank you for not letting me sound like an idiot when I go on a rampage at the OTB
