Here is a list of Gary Contessa's winning firsters over the last 12 months....
11 wins from 68 starters for a 3.05 ROI but that includes Saturday's $86 winner.
National Pride and the aforementioned Another Foose obviously haven't run back. Here are the other nine and what happened to them. I will start with the best.
