I've always been big fan of trainer Peter Walder. He was always adept at finding the right place to enter his horses especially towards the end of meets here in South Florida. Haven't seen him in a long time & just learned that he withdrew his application for his racing license. His barn was turned over to trainer Fernando Abreu & he's now just acting in a consultant role. He won at a 25% rate for over a decade. His career has been relatively clean regarding medication violations but evidently he's a pain in the ass around the backstretch/barn areas. His use of profanity & obnoxious behavior got him thrown off racing properties in New Jersey & Illinois. His reasoning for withdrawing his application is due to personal matters he needs to address. You never know what is going on in someone's life until they hit a wall.
