O Neil cant be defended on any level.. On the 8/9 Suffolk card there were 2 Zito Lapenta Mdn's dropping from 20 to 4 claimers both horses were 200 plus k and both were to slow to compete in NY. I also saw an Ex Phipps 4 year old that was out of Finders Fee racing as well.
The real question is does a horse's previous owner need to be responsible for the life of the animal that they purchased or bred and raced? Tough issue in the case of the two LaPenta Zito's yesterday ther were purchased in 08 for real money who knows how much was poored into the training feeding and vetting for these for the last 18 months. It isn't unresonable that each had 100k of added expense until they were claimed away.. Should Lapenta have to inspect or be involved with the horses future because he raised his paddle the highest in a auction in 08? Tough question

Someone enlighten me here: are claiming horses typically insured? And, if so, is it for a preset level or does it fluctuate depending on the last race level?

edit: probably not "typically" insured, though we do have a lot of claimers we write.

Doug O'Neil is the true definition of "a wolf in sheep's clothes".

Whatever, I'm sure Tuscan Evening just needed some new shoes and a trip to the dentist.

With regard to your assessment that his barn is well run, I have always heard just the opposite. But he is obviously doing something right. He's winning a lot of races.

She looked like the kind of horse who showed ability here and there - but other times would get beat 20 lengths against maidens. That's why I say our medication probably moved her up. You go 0-for-11 in Europe with several terrible races - including a 20 length thumping against Irish maidens at Cork in your final Euro start .. then you come here, romp in your US debut - and go like 6 for 6 this year - with 6 graded stakes wins.

I think O'Neill is intentionally killing these horses so he can eat them.
