yeah, I remember saying that he is one of the unluckiest men ever to be caught up in all the scandals he's had or they are more than just rumours.., The Ballinger Ridge affair looked awful to the casual viewer, but in fairness to him, he lost on a bobbing finish, yeah he should have won 10+lengths but with those low grade horses, trainers seem to hate when you win by large margins. The horse didnt want to quicken again..
And yeah, I fully agree re: drugs.. Its harder to sympathise with him when dabbling in that sort of stuff, no excuse for it whatsoever..
