Jamie Ness

Guy looks like he is a really good trainer Every horse he claims improves dramtically and he wins at every track when I am watching.

Trainer Jamie Ness has been on a tremendous roll of late, winning with 23 of 30 starters between Friday, May 4 and Wednesday’s fourth race at Delaware Park

I think I would say 23 out of 30 seems a little stronger than what I would consider smart placement of horses.

Does anyone claim off of him?

[Clockerbob]

what percentage is this Ness sent out 79 winners from 168 starters at the Tampa meet

79 ÷ 168 = 47%

I've never seen a hotter trainer since the Oscar Barrera days way back when.

But check their payoffs....very little profit.

I have to disagree - he DOES place his horses extremely well....not that I wager on them much because of their odds. It would be a completely different story if his horses were coming in at boxcars every now and then. The only "longshot" I could think of was that filly Stakes at Pimlico for MD breds where he put his 50% winning filly (lower class horse but with the best figs) against a bunch of inferior nags. She won at 6-1.

Again, excellent placements, imo. Nothing more, nothing less.

Never say never so there's a tiny chance he cheats, but if you could train horses without a care in the world from owners if they got claimed, you'd place your horses where they can win most of the time too. I think that's the big advantage Ness has.

Not sure, but has he ever been busted or fined because of drugs?

Someone posted this earlier. I would assume with his prestigous ranking at the top there had to be some fines along the way. I dont know though.

Btw, that filly who won that MD bred stakes a month ago at 6-1, Sneaky Lil, is running back in a Starter Handicap Friday morning at Pimlico.

This is just another perfect example of a fantastic placement by Ness. Here's a horse who just won a $100,000 race and now Ness sneaks her into a Starter Handicap for horses who probably started for $10,000 or something. She'll probably be *2/5.

Not many trainers could or would do that.

Been noticing lately his horses have been running like they have cancer. Just heard on TVG he is 0 for 27 since a dirty test 3 weeks ago. I think there were some on this thread before posting he is just managing his horses and placing them where they need to win. Guys horses were all improving many lengths off the claim, now they are all running far up the track. This sport is incredible. This guy stole money from gamblers for 6 months.

I've been noticing Ness recently slumping too Pete Mo. Let's see how he does at Tampa Bay Downs where he was on fire
last meeting.
