Chad Brown
We all know that racing can be a streaky game, but I do think it is appropriate to note that leading trainer Chad Brown is now on a major losing streak. By my count, he has now lost with his last 18 runners. His horses are overbet, but I would note the list of losers include 2-5 SisterCharlie, and 11 others under 3-1. Only 2 losers were double digit prices. The probability of so many failures is over 1000-1. Chad's horses, particularly on the turf, are known for their extra acceleration over the last 3/16. Today, as an example, he sent out two favorites that loomed up, but were flat going to the wire. The guy has been on his way to an all time great, but I believe this is a trend worth watching. I am old enough to remember the late Oscar Barrera going from a magic worker to 0/95 before his death. At this point, I will chalk it up to just a bad streak, but it better not last much longer.
