He was willing this horse, CARRYING this horse to the line.....and it was the last race of the day, he could have mailed in this ride, but stuck around to ride for a 2 for 49 trainer on a horse who shows zip.

That says a lot about what kind of rider and what kind of man he wants to be.

*as a side note, this trainer Anthony Quartarolo, who used to be a harness trainer and driver, seems to have the ability to secure Castellano's service on some really bad horses....this horse Castellano rode isn't the only AQ horse who shows nothing that he's been riding.

Imo Castellano has been the best rider in ny for a while and yes it includes when Ramon was riding..
