Mike Maloney Interview
Mike Maloney is a HANA VP and he works hard on industry issues. Sometimes we forget he is a heck of a good horseplayer. He was recently a part of an in-depth interview on myriad issues.
On picking his spots: "Now I try harder to be a complete horseplayer, to find pedigree plays, pace plays, and trainer angles that work—or maybe angles that are specific to a certain distance at a certain track."
On Pace: "I think evaluating pace is still an area where there’s still some opportunity if a person takes the time to do it."
On Take: "All we’re doing when we raise takeout is driving away people. The regulars are coming less often or they’re coming just as often but getting ground down. People within the game still don’t understand how destructive takeout is."
