Kev, Bigs, etc.. who the hell is Jamie Ness, and how is he turning 10,000 claimers into stakes winners

I wish someone had warned me about him!

Terry...the winner in the turf sprint stake race at Tampa today...was a horse that Ness had claimed for $12,500. Was talking to Chuck about it earlier. That is pretty damn impressive...no?

a buddy of mine loved this horse today had him keyed in the tampa pick 4 and went win place on him, i thought he was crazy keying this horse in that race but i guess not

Yeah I told my buddy that the horse would win but didn't bet it because 5-1 was too short a price.

*kicks self*

Kev, I wish you had mentioned that piece of information earlier. If you could see his TG sheet, his previous top before Ness (from now on to be known as "BN") was 5. Since the claim, zero, zero, 2.75 last on turf, today..? He also worked "magic" in the 7th with Silver Peagus, hadn't routed in the last 3 years before today, (he missed most of his 6yr old season) which was his 5th start for JN, numbers have improved from 11 down to 4 before today's effort. Must be special Hay and Oats, huh??

Sorry my friend. To be honest...I had zero plans to play anything at all today (work gets in the way sometimes), so I didn't even download the Tampa PP's. I just have played enough TBD to know NEVER toss Ness....ESPECIALLY first off the claim. I think he was batting about 41% with that stat the last I looked.

Kev I know Jamie, he trained for us at CBY, and I know his Dad John. Common as dirt and a hard worker, I am very happy for him. The syndicate still operates at CBY under "Slow Pay Stables", we were "Paddock Parners" when I was in it. Good for Jamie.

Minny, I don't mean to cast aspersions, I am not a horseman, just a small-time horse player.. but the sheets do tell an interesting story..

It is just one of those things that you take as a "given" and you don't ask questions...

Golfer...Ness's numbers are mind boggling. Routinely claims horses...bumps them up in class...and wins for fun. He is an auto include for any race he is entered...especially if Centeno is up.
