I just wish the public had more info on exactly the nature of these investigations. I know it involves a bunch of Florida riders regarding a race at Great Lakes Downs, but everything else is so vague and secretive. Either scrunge up some real info on these guys or let 'em ride. If they wanna keep the evidence secretive, the accused jocks should come public with the accusations to put heat on the people trying to keep them banned.
The best way to fix is for the fav to miss the board. Hard to make a nag run faster but a lot easier to restrain of cause the low odds horses to have trouble and miss the board. A short field 6-7-8 horses with the 3 lowest odds horses missing the board equals a mega hit een at the small tracks . You dont need to have the winner pegged jus box the field without the top 3.
