Doubt it...He had an FCC horse in the 9th at Tampa today - this may turn out to be a lucrative angle at TBD - FCC shippers from GP...

Is Calabrese for real saying that Catalano made money but he never did? How is that possible?

When you buy them for 40k and lose them for 5k the purses dont make up the difference especially considering the day rate and vet bills. Winning races in this business is relatively easy. Making money is not.

FCC bets with both hands and comes to the track daily 'impolite' (carrying tons of cash) so when they lose it is compounded. This and as said before letting horses go for half their value and trying to 'get out' by pounding that horse usually at even money is a tough prospect. He could always sell Dreamin of Anna if he wants some cash.
