This is clever.

You meant this as a joke....right?

Again, having to be SO clear, I should have mentioned that all starters have some sort of conditions. It was more me asking if they run them without nw conditions on them.

Let's see, you don't know what kind of Starter races are run in NY, NJ, and I'll assume by extension the entire mid-Atlantic region, yet you figured it was just the Arlington trainers that would be clever enough to swoop in for this gem, but it is ME that only thinks about one region.

Good stuff dude.

Like I said....you're just typing.

Where did I say or 'figure' that it was just the Arlington trainers grabbing this guy?

Ok, fine....but shouldn't you have wondered why nobody jumped in on him before?

He is probably a cripple, I have no idea. These Arlington guys haven't had the opportunity to. Rather, they wouldn't have put the time or focus into claiming a horse from NY or NJ. It isn't like either of the three guys I mentioned claim out of NY or NJ, ever. They claim this horse on Wednesday and he comes up with the string next month, and he is probably out of jail by Arlington. And I am guessing that Dutrow knows this, and figured it was a great opportunity to pick up 16k for a horse that might have 1-2 races left. I don't know the inner workings. I barely follow the NY circuit let alone claiming habits of trainers.

Rivelli took Gran Estreno for 20k from down there, and Calabrese took a crippled Boundary horse off Tagg a couple years ago off the same situations. And there was another horse that Rivelli claimed off of Dutrow either last year or the year before in that range. They claim dropping cripples all the time and they run huge first start here, and they are running for 5k by the end of the meet.

****, I am not even smart enough to see that Rivelli claimed Optimer off of Dutrow...

Another piece of proof

Dutrow's other horse might be claimed also. Might be one big Arlington claiming party.
