Dont get me started, another DTer said the same thing, bettor not protected at all, absolute bs and nothing we can do about it, i want to get a Barry Bonds cardboard lifesize and put it next to his comedy chair in paddock

And its the horseman's fault?

This is from a locally based owner on Arlington's facebook page.

I don't know who this specific trainer is, but I know of two trainers, that are good guys that have stalled here in the past, that got denied.

Why has AP refused to grant stall space to trainers and owners who have been racing at CD. I own two filles, raced then at CD, and had planned to come to AP. My trainer was told there is not sufficient space to stable his string of 12/13 head. I live here in Elk Grove, have raced at AP for three years, and am very upset with the way we are being trated. The lack of barn space is not true. The races being run so far at AP for the most part have short fields, which are dominated by even odds horses either owned or trained by two people. No wonder intertrack betting at AP is down.

That Human Liver Spot was certainly sitting in the catbird's seat the previous two days with three out of four winners on Saturday and Boy Scout Day on Sunday. The rush he got from seeing 500 cub scouts prancing through the paddock on Sunday was probably enough to keep him off Viagra for a week.

Frank C claimed a horse on Sat with a trainer I never heard of named. I think it was Faucheux? He will probably only be a 50% winner

He's 23 years old, whatever that means

Does anyone remember Frank Passero Jr. at Gulfstream Park, used to use the horrendous J Bracho as his jock, made huge drops to win claiming races, totally disrupted betting unless you wanted to be a bridgejumper and was accused of using Vicks vapor rub on a horse's genitalia. You wouldn't call him a good trainer by any means despite a great winning %.

I don't think they had HGH back then...and having bigger balls I don't think would make a horse run faster. ;)

Obviously. He's got Frank pitching a tent every time he saunters past him.

It's never boring in Chicago.

Catalano is going to be using less of Baze (to shake things up?) and Canani filed an appeal resulting in a 30 day stay of suspension.

He used to work for Pletcher. His dad is known in political circles; the father was an elected official in the NOLA area and is now a political analyst in D.C. He also has connections to Louie Roussel.
