CLASSIC..LOLLOLOLOLOL

again the suspension is a complete and total joke to me. this was offered to me when i had my horse in minnesota for the summer a couple years ago. i was absolutely shocked and angered and the trainer said"im just giving you more options" of course i said no and sent my horse to the farm for the rest of the year but this stuff if alot more widespread than most would think. the slightest bit off and you can kill the horse

Good for you. Shame that option was even offered to you.

Did you change trainers?

yeah when my horse returned to the track last year he returned with my original trainer

IMO you should be directing your anger, not at the KHRA, but at the people who allow this to happen and will fill the guys barn when he returns from another long suspension....his owners

ding ding ding

Maybe the Ramsey's will give all their horses to him :D

I'd take the days...again...

interesting chuck i was talking to a local trainer here last week and your name came up included with the aforementioned owners.after your dealings with them those owners were gonna give him some horses but then at the last second backed out cuz he was only 25 at the time and he said hed never use a trainer under 35 again. i actually never knew ya had horses for them until then

Well sorry you missed it but it 's not gonna happen again. Dont like training for free...except for my wife of course...

lol well ill be sure to tell that to the"local" trainer here and maybe hell feel better just incase he was thinking"what might have been" im pretty sure you know him personally, his father also trains plus he ships from here to KY alot and actually stays there sometimes. need anymore hints lol? hes tall.

Tell him I said what's up and isn't he broke enough???

will do, lol hopefully hes not doin too bad financially these days hes got 15-20head here

all trainers are broke....

some go beyond broke and im amazed how some survive especially at places like downstate fairmount here

I'm amazed how some guys at Churchill and Belmont survive

im amazed how some trainers here in ILL get 60-65 bucks a day with the purses we have here and are below 10% for their careers, yet people still give these trainers stock

The vet supposedly has more complete and specific knowledge of the effects of using these medications, given his education and training. Moreover, his profession is supposed to have the goal of maintaining health in the animals, not giving them 'quick fixes' so they can run. The vet takes an oath like a doctor and should be a first line of defense against crooked trainers wanting an edge. I would guess that is the reason they came down hard on the vet (who can go work on show horses or cows, if he wants to now. He won't be totally out of business, like Biancone will be.)

Oh oh ohh!! Chris Dorris!!!

What do I win?

someone give pillow a cookie.
