In the continuing series of horsemen looking ridiculous, here is Monty Meier in the Golden Gate Fields racing office. Monty is one of the nicest fellows on the backstretch and has a horseman's resume a mile long, working with many legends of the game. By all accounts he is an exceptional horseman. Many readers will know his brother Randy Meier, a mainstay on the Chicago racing circuit and member of the 4000 win club.
As for Monty's broken glasses, he blamed the rigors of life on the backstretch, but rumors are circulating that Monty is the victim of domestic violence. Anyone who knows his longtime sweetheart Turtle, who also gallops for the Meier barn and is quite a horseman in her own right, would not quickly dismiss such a theory.
