Quite a good read, thanks for posting. I never followed harness racing much in the 90s except for an occasional evening hanging out with my cousin at OTB. We learned really fast how to handicap those races though, Case the Ace.

Actually pretty shocking to hear the backstory.

Good article. I remember from the late 80s at Roosevelt and Yonkers, he would often go first over. Was such a dominant force.
