Frankel, the legend, started like Ness. He will win graded stakes very soon and he will be a major force in racing UNLESS he is caught...Frankel never was and continued his rule on racing until his demise..

I loved Frankel...I think the Ness situation is very similar.. Frankel cheated and was the best cheater ever and because he was the very best got great owners to give him great stock..The tuna Fish didnt even care he was robbing him until it became so obvious he pitched him

I agree though I doubt many here will admit it.

There is virtually no relation to what Frankel did and what ness has done except they both involve horses. Frankel was the leading trainer at the leading track in the US training against great horseman. He claimed and bought horses cheap and made them into top contenders in NY when NY was clearly the best racing in the country. Ness is winning at Canterbury, thistledowns and tampa. You can say what you want about Frankel and cheating but the guy was a great horseman. Ness?

This thread is another in a series of epic - Sunday Silence and Easy Goer like duels between one guy who made his fortune selling Austin 3:16 T-shirts to WWF fans - and another guy who was shrewd enough to tell the Ramsey's to GFY.

Frankel was a HoF horseman and a HoF cheat.. When you are both its an excellent recipe for success..

Ness bought a few 2 year olds training..the kid is magic and will be one of the top 5 trainers in the country in 5 years
