Lake (born June 29, 1965, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania) is an American trainer of Thoroughbred racehorses who, on April 4, 2019, became the sixth trainer in North American racing history to record 6,000 wins.[1] As at February 2, 202023 he is ranked sixth all time in career wins with 6,301.

Multiple Championships

Scott Lake began his training career at Penn National Race Course in Grantville, Pennsylvania, where he got his first win in June, 1987. Since then he has been the United States Champion Thoroughbred Trainer by wins four times and has won seven consecutive training titles at Delaware Park Racetrack.[2] The official Breeders Cup website says that Lake "Has won dozens of training titles at Penn National, Philadelphia Park, Delaware Park, Pimlico and Laurel Park. Although he started out mainly conditioning horses he or an owner had claimed, by the beginning of the 2000s Lake began to work with stakes quality horses.[3] He won more races in the State of Maryland than any other trainer in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. For 2010 he cut back substantially on the number of horses under his care, going down to 70 from 287.[4]
