This outfit took a lot of heat from some on this board last year. This year they are off to a great start. 25 starts, 6 wins, 3 seconds and 1 third. Winning percentage of 24%.

The smart money says they finish 2012 under 15% winners with purses won not exceeding expenses charged.

Do wins at Mountaineer really count?

We were 5-7 at Mtnr in 2011 one big stakes race win was the reason we made money the other 4 wins we lost about $4000 for the year.

So far so good. 4 1/2 months into the year Equibase says their Win Percentage is 21% and their 1-2-3 Percentage is 49%. 47 Starts (10-8-5 $152,564).

Rumor has it Graci is out and the stable has a new trainer.

Nice stats! Who trains for you there?

Never heard of R.Oliva. The person at Penn who told me Graci was fired said she was being replaced by a fat guy.

Thought maybe David Lupo was back in the fold.

It was only a matter of time. He talked about getting a trainer license a few times.

It should be noted that Kim Graci was not 'fired'. Bob had to be happy with her work this year, her stats speak for themselves. Kim will have no trouble filling the vacated stalls.

The change was made because Bob O obtained his trainers license. To Bob there are advantages to train in Pa (like health insurance) as well as decreased expenses.

Good luck Bob O

Equibase closed the books on 2012 last night.

As predicted this stable finished the year with 13% winners and under 33%
1-2-3. At Pen they were 5th in total starts but only 14th in purses won.

Since the new trainer took over in May, the winning % dipped under 10% with 1-2-3 under 25%. His ave. EPS was $1,700,well under the 10 year average acheived previously. The new trainer was 0-17 with 2yo's (not even a P/S), 3yo's, turf horses, or with any horse shipped out-of-town looking for an easier spot.

Here's wishing all better luck in 2013. I understand the current trainer has decided to offer his services to public clients and has bedded some hard-hitting runners under his shedrow. Sound be an interesting 2013.
