What was the horse and original trainer that FRK took under great controversy as a 4 yo that may have even have won this race at old Richmond Raceway. Owners at the time thought it was better to send to Fred given its talent much to the disgust of most in the industry particularly the original trainer who was a small team trainer. At the time it was so controversial that Rod White wrote an article in the Daily News defending Kersley which he used to do all the time anyway.
The horse concerned went to Fred but never lived up to its early potential under previous trainer.
It finished its racing days with Lynn Lucas as trainer and Shane Butterworth taking most drives.
Was a flashy black with great gate speed.
Just one that stuck in my mind over the years as I felt sorry for the original trainer at the time and from memory I don't think he ever trained another horse however I could be wrong.
