:smoking: Yeah the 4 horse did a Dump....My 7 horse of course was gonna go wide with a wall of horses at that turn before the stretch
He got bumped a bit not to bad in those close quarters. You can see then it was anybody's race.

Very interesting!

Campbell/Drexler factoids:

In the past 2 years (before today)...
8/33 wins (24%)
16/33 ITM (48%)
win ROI=$1.74 .... that is huge!


Only 3 horses went off below 2-1 ..... all 3 lost, and today makes 4.

33 mounts over 2 years isn't much considering Drexler has sent 221 out total.
Apparently odds affect their intentions when they hook up. What I consider 'fiddling'.
Their fiddling won't ever burn me again!!

:smoking: I could never understand why he left Illinois racing he was pretty decent jock...Maybe Professor you've undercover something.

 

[Prof_Factor]

You're right. He originated and ran Illinios mainly but after '99 he also wintered in Louisiana, until moving to Woodbine in 2011.

Crooks don't make a habit with setups.
They have to fly under the radar. If they did it every week it would be too obvious.
Some might not do again for a year or two. Depending on who and how much they scored.
I saw one crook retire 6 months after a setup. Kinda figured he scored BIG.
