Interesting he had the nerve to show up for the Wood Memorial yesterday in light of this story getting out.

Paraglalo should be banned from entry to any NY race track and beyond. Enough is enough. Horse Racing is the business I've chosen to entertain myself and I would like to see it suceed on a straighter path.

from the gripping article above...tx reese
"Since 1996, Paragallo’s family-owned Paraneck Stable has been among the nation’s leading racing outfits, starting 4,686 runners that have earned $20.6 million in purse money."

Can this be accurate, 4686 runners ? That's 390.5 runners per year '96-'09.
Or is that 4686 starts ? Either way , can some one explain the rationality behind these numbers ? I'm dumbfounded .

If your ego requires that your stable 'be among the nation's leading racing outfits' and but you want to do it on the cheap, you send out vast numbers of horses in lower level races.
