We'll have to get Pope's opinion of this situation.  dorkusinterruptus

He is sitting on 13,998 wins.
Maybe he will hit 14,000 in his home state.

Well if that is his plan, then everyone should make sure to bet against him tomorrow on his 6 drives he has at Dover.

could be more pezz...Tyler Smith listed on multiples and plenty of TBAs...what I see is 2 for Aman, 2 for Grisenwaithe and 1 for Gillenwater, who are these guys ????Ohio crew let us know...
Also Saint Calvin using Ryan Stahl instead of the normal statute could be a play there.

meant to post Robin Miller but on second thought, statue will suffice.

St Calvin doesn't use a driver over Robin Miller, Robin Miller has to drive for Rosy Weaver.

Paul Gillenwater if I recall correctly was a pretty good and regular trainer here in the mid 2000's there is also a Mark Gillenwater.  I believe they are father and son but I forget which is which.  shutupandkissme may have been their best horse

Jeff Amann is a good trainer that recently got suspended for fighting, the other guy is gone.

David Grisenthwaite isn't someone you would throw the horse out of the race if he was training, but you wouldn't pick the horse just because he is the trainer.

The few times I have watched the races this year, Robin was driving a little more aggressive.

Robin is way more aggressive on her horses than anyone else's.

Let me know if he is going to propose, so I know to bet him as he will win a lot of races to pay for the ring.

You hit that nail right on the head ! I wonder if RTP sent him some roses to honor this milestone  rflmao1

I am quite sadistic I hope he gets 1 win and 12 seconds   idunno

I wish Tony the best.......no personal issues with me.........but if they are going to keep betting him the chalk favorite just because it is him......might be a good night for astute gamblers to make money.  8)

If I'm not mistaken, Pope and Tony were very close friends. He must be really busy to not be posting on the night of Tony's 14,000 the win.

I did not know Flash and Tony were as close as they are. I pointed out the obvious that Tony went to Northfield because Danny was not going to be there tonight, making it easier for Tony to win some races, and Flash said "f**k you Gary." I certainly have nothing against Tony, but let's face it-this is not the same Tony who won 1000 races just a few years ago.

I think my all time Tony Morgan highlight was when he drove Harmer's horse in the Jug. Must have been in 2006, because I was here in Las Vegas. That was the year following our accident and I had no vacation time available to go watch the Jug live that year.

Tom Harmer's post-race interview had me in tears.  dorkusinterruptus

Flash worships the ground he Tony walks on.............I bet he even is holding it while Tony pees tonight.

Well I certainly appreciate Tyler Smith beating Flash's horse tonight to hit me that trifecta.  thumbsup

I drove against Tony many times. He could be a snotty, arrogant prick, be he sure could drive a horse. He and his Bride were always nice to my Mom & Stepdad, and he was the 1st Horsemens Rep that ever stood up to the Johnstons in Chitown without blinking.

He's OK in my book. I'm cheering for him to hit 14,000. Go get'em Tony!

I know he hasn't been winning many lately but this does surprise me. I'm sure he'll get to 14k but wow

if he couldn't get a win or 2 out of 13 I have to think something is wrong.
