Truth be told, I once got put up for five figures, yes over $10K, in a Pick-3 at Belmont when my horse finished second ( it was a Richie O'Connell horse on a Monday in, probably, 1993, two days after Colonial Affair won the Belmont ) by EIGHT lengths to a Cruget horse ( trained by Mubarrak ) named Blue something. Cruget was DQ'd because he irresponsibly plowed into some horse while blowing by( this was his trademark move ) into the stretch.

He was a TERRIBLE rider.
Your memory is second to none..

[Horses who I personally love that are not in the hall of fame - maybe they don't belong there but it seems with a little luck they would have been HOF members. Maybe...]

Dale Baird should be in the Hall of Fame.

His stable was basically Auschwitz for Equines .. and he won about 10,000 races with horses who mostly went on to fill dinner plates for this here feller...




Truthfully - Baird deserves to get in for no other reason than because he was by far the worst trainer in history in terms of betting value. It takes a real special kind of operation to lose at triple the track takeout - and do so with a sample size of literally several thousands of starts.

I don't think there was a better track to play around when Baird was alive and MTR had slots. The dude had about four or five horrendous favorites a day for five days a week for 52 weeks a year. They'll never be anything like it again.

I have to agree with you Kiri. But that was a pretty nice put up for Andy, and we tend to remember good things like that.

Don't give his memory that much credit ... he used the Cap locks button twice in that Redboard of the century of a post ... once to stress that his horse who got put up was beaten by eight lengths .. and the other to stress that Cruget was a terrible rider.

Based on the final margin in the chart above .. I'm going to say Cruget wasn't even quite half as terrible as BTW says.

Well you sure didn't.

You have no movie reference.

Oh boy.....



...how prophetic is I.


Listen,Mountebank....if you can't deal with the issue you look for spelling/grammar mistakes.


Why don't you visit Tomato in the ca-ca room?

I'm sure you two would have a lot in common.

RockTard,



You have no idea how stupid you are.

Trying to Eddie Haskell Mountebank on this only magnifies your stupidity.
