So Shirley nobody cheats.

When a trainer can 'substantially' move up a Pletcher horse, I'll believe this.Todd should have had a special award presented for him for actually turning A.P. Arrow into a grade 2 winner, this horse was a plug. I'm not sure anyone could have done as much with the Arrow.

Horse racing is like Tiger Woods in Vegas.

I worked for a couple trainers 11 years ago. Never witnessed any cheating and really dont suspect cheating at any of the outfits i worked for. Tho its not like any trainer would have teaching a 16 year old hotwalker how to milkshake a horse high on their list of priorities.



lori - in your opinion are most of the leading trainers at the spa are taking an edge?

it's hard to judge this kind of stuff on a day like yesterday at the spa. you never know which horses are going to take to the off track.. even on a given day.

right , look at MTB in the derby , the horse freaks that day on the peanut butter surface of churchill downs and wins a derby that looked like someone fired him out of a rocket launcher

the horse just love the peanut butter more , much more than the others

Yeah I'm definitely judging it just off of yesterday. Straw, camel, back my friend. The dude's horses never get tired.
