TRAINER STEVE MANLEY SCORES HIS 1,000TH VICTORY
Steve Manley scored the 1,000th training victory of his career on Wednesday in the ninth race at Hawthorne Race Course with longshot No Bull Jess who was making his second start. Ridden by Chris Emigh, No Bull Jess paid $40.20, $13.60, and $8.60. Hope Steve had a few bucks on him.
Manley started training in 1991 but he had only four starters and no winners that year. His first win came in 1992 when he won with five of 21 starters. His most successful year so far came in 2009 when he had 544 starters, 114 winners, 81 that finished second, 69 that got up for third and his horses earned $1,152,164.
