Bobby Frankel & Maryland

[chrisg]

Can any of you tell me Bobby Frankel's record in Maryland for 2002, 2003 & 2004? Thanks in advance.

I know Midas Eyes got beat there in the DeFrancis :), Wildcat Heir was my bet. I don't really think Frankel would have sent enough runners to Maryland to draw any real conclusions.

I haven't followed Maryland racing closely for years...but there are certain stakes (there) over the last few years that I thought he would have shipped in for...makes me wonder what they test for...just a theory in progress...

May not mean anything, but it looks like his biggest win % are generally on the non-major tracks.
Maybe those are the horses who are away from their "home" tracks or he ships to the bigger races on the mid-sized tracks?
