The Record
Danzig appears in the surviving Plainridge programs across the 2003 season, with 2 starts for which the official chart records a finishing position. None of those starts produced a win in the charts held here, though the horse reached the frame on 0 occasions.
The classes Danzig was entered in run to PESKY, NW4000. These are condition races rather than claiming events, so eligibility rested on money already won rather than on a posted purchase price.
The drivers who sat behind Danzig most often were James P Mc Gowan (1). Driver changes matter more in harness racing than the bare numbers suggest, because the same horse can be driven for early speed or held for a late quarter depending on who holds the lines.

Questions about this horse
Was Danzig a trotter or a pacer?
A trotter — every charted start is at the trot. A pacer moves its legs in lateral pairs, a trotter in diagonal pairs, and a horse is normally campaigned at one gait or the other.
What class did Danzig race in?
PESKY and NW4000. Each code is a set of eligibility conditions rather than a grade — the class pages explain what each one admitted.
What were the odds on Danzig?
The shortest price in the recovered charts is 21.60 to one. Odds are the closing figures printed on the chart, so they reflect what the pool decided at the off, not a forecast.
How many times did Danzig race at Plainridge?
The record shows 2 charted starts for Danzig, 2003. Those fall across 2 race days. That is what the programmes and result sheets hold, not necessarily the horse's full career: starts made at other tracks are outside this record.
What is Danzig's win record at Plainridge?
Not in the charts recovered here. Danzig shows 2 starts without a win, though no placing inside the first three is recorded either.
Is there a recorded winning time for Danzig?
No. A time is only charted for a horse when the official chart for that race survived, and for Danzig the recovered documents are entry sheets or partial cards. The starts are recorded; the mile rate is not.
Which drivers sat behind Danzig?
James P Mc Gowan took every recorded drive — 1 start.
