Default Ferriola returns?

was last seen a fair amount of years ago, but 2 things I do remember about him: He was a Howard Stern look-alike, and he was one of the early "move-up" trainers, no?

I remember him well, he along with "the Gas man" Gasper Moschera were the "kings" of the NYRA claiming circuit.

I'm not sure I get the Howard Stern comparison.....but I haven't seen him in quite a while.

That's an odd job to come out of retirement for.

It seems that a certain Charles Simon once worked for Peter Ferriola. Perhaps he can shed some light.
