#1 Money Burner
I had to LOL when I heard who moved to the top of the all time money burner list.
Who is the best money burner? |

RA has to be in the hunt here. Hasn't she lost multiple 1:5 1:10 races this year ? |

She was 0.45-to-1 in the Personal Ensign - Life At Ten was 1.85-to-1 in there. When I think of money burners - I think of horses like Nationalore who was 0-for-26 lifetime but was in the money in 5 different stakes races - including the Breeders Cup Juvenile and a 3rd beaten 2 lengths to Real Quiet in the Hollywood Futurity. He would always suck up and pass the quitters in those fast paced stakes races. Drop him back to Cal bred MSW races - and his "class" would never show. |

Thousands of maidens are money burners. Then there are high profile races that are memorable because of the beaten favorites. Arazi made his mark in two big events but didn't race enough to be the all timer.
Then there are the 4-6 to one shots who consistently suck up like Dollar Bill. I would guess a horse like Jacques Who will always be near the top of the list. |

Is this a thinly veiled Perfect Drift thread?

You could have made a fortune by backwheeling Perfect Drift in exactas from age 5 on. He was at least pretty predictable - Nationalore would run 3rd in back to back Grade 1's than run a flat 5th in a Cal Bred maiden special weight.
Perfect Drift - in his first couple of years - was actually one of the most underrated horses of recent times. A friggen badass horse with a trainer whos incompetence was the stuff of legend. If some alchemist like Dutrow had PD - instead of a trainer who'd go 2-for-106 at Turfway Park - he probably would have been Horse of the Year at least once. Who can forget Murray Johnson - when this horse was in his prime - threatening to skip the Breeders Cup and instead run in the Melbourne Cup. |
