They should review some old DRF's on this one...

In other news related to the race, lets see if we can guess which horses will be bought out...errrrr...scratch out.

No Brakes...doesn't Sancuk train for Cole? On another note Derwin's Prospector looks like a real threat in there.

No Brakes can win that race. I would play that pick 3 because the 2 races after it are decent allowance races. If it stays together, meaning no scratches Ill play No Brakes.

I'm sure he was just entered to make the race fill. He won't run. You guys do realize the cash and horses are changing hands to keep this ridiculous streak going, right?

That was my point with No Brakes. The Frock horse...well I'm sure you can read the PPs.

Apparently, people at all the media outlets care as they printing these stupid stories.

We called up the Jockey Club today to confirm Donald Macdonald's record. . . they looked it up and, low and behold, Doug got it right. . .

I know. Its actually sad that this is the biggest story in racing.

[cmorioles]

The guy from Bloodhorse keeps telling me some of the wins in 1913 were in Mexico and at least one in Canada, but I don't see it looking at those PPs.

[Calzone Lord]

The guy from the Blood-Horse doesn't know what he's talking about. Donald Macdonald's last race that I can find on the DRF Archives was a 4th place finish as a 12-year-old in the 6th race at Havana Cuba on March 16th 1918. Perhaps he's looking at his final 22 wins and not his 1913 races.

In those days - they did not put the actual date in the Daily Racing Form past performances - they put index numbers in the place of the dates.

Races with index numbers 6,807 Through index numbers 12,943 occured in the year 1913.

His first win of the year 1913 was race "6991" - it was the 5th race on Jan 29th of 1913. Here is a chart of the first race on that card...



6987 is race 1, 6988 is race 2, 6989 is race 3, 6990 is race 4, 6991 is race 5 and so on.

Here's a chart of one of his wins ... this was the 3rd race at Havre De Grace on Sept 15th of 1913.



In those days - the serious handicappers would buy monthly chart books - and the charts were in numerical order.

I didn't do a lot of research on the connections this time, but I'm guessing RR scratches out.

Scooter Davis is a notorious cheat.

He's been suspended more often than any other trainer in America... this is one of his best training jobs...




Here's Mountaineer trainer Ralphie the Cat on Scooter getting caught on his 31st Last Chance.

Makes this comment from Cole all the more funny.

“He just started training for me,” Cole said. “He’s fantastic out there at Charles Town with sprinters going 4 1/2 furlongs. I plan on using him for the time being for the next few years.”

Looks like only the ridiculous horse scratched out so far. When you think about it, they have the streak record already. If they want to break the record that isn't really a record, they almost have to run now. There isn't much time left.
