YONKERS, NY, Monday, September 5, 2016 – If you want a commemorative photo of Carlos Danger, try the harness racing paddock before the race.
While his alter ego nom de plume-disgraced former New York politician Anthony Weiner-has a thing for the camera, alas, 'Carlos' the four-legged does not.
From a Yonkers Raceway eight-hole in Monday night's third race, Carlos Danger was a non-factor sixth, running his career record to 1-for-21. However, the 3-year-old pacing colt was more than obliging (along with groom Amanda Hagstrom Vestgard) to mug for the paparazzi earlier in the evening.
As for Carlos, it's back to the drawing board. Either that, or in the spirit of his namesake, Photoshop.
