We knew Milton wasn’t a good racehorse. We didn’t realize how very much not good he was.
“In case you missed it, The Jockey Club launched a new Equineline report focused on off track Thoroughbreds … The report is free to horses with a T.I.P. number.” Hand Gallop: New OTTB Profile.
Milton has a T.I.P. number. [Providing Milton With Incentive]
He earned $1200. We knew this. The money had to come from barnmates, because …
Milton ran in three races.
Three-year-old year, 2011 – 10th out of 10.
Four-year-old year – 11th out of 11 & 11th out of 11.
Yes. Dead last in every race.
That’s kinda remarkable.
In the spirit of calling big men “Tiny” we thought about calling Milton “Speedy”.
🤣🤣🤣
Onwards!

Well, as least he was consistent.
Oh, Milton gets my sympathy. I don’t mean the “somebody has to lose” type, but because he was obviously not made for racing, or trained properly, and told to do something he clearly wasn’t made for. MM
