Ed Golden, a native Philadelphian, won an Eclipse Award honorable mention
for thoroughbred writing while with the Philadelphia Daily News and, as
publicist at Santa Anita, "discovered" Larry The Legend. While
morning line odds maker at Monmouth Park and Garden State Park, he once went
134 straight days selecting at least one winner on the program during a Garden
State meeting, including one day when the card was snowed out after just two
races.
As handicapper at the Philadelphia Daily News, his best bets once won on 10
consecutive days. A $2 win parlay would have returned more than $19,000. In
addition to being the first to uncover the Larry The Legend story, Golden also
was first with the Jeff Lukas-Tabasco Cat accident, as well as other important
and informative news from the world of thoroughbred racing. Presently a
freelance writer, his stories have been published in The Blood-Horse, The
Backstretch, Thoroughbred of California and Gaming Today.
