The trainer at Mountaineer at first denied knowledge of the horse and then got defensive and slipped, reflecting knowledge that the horse was part of Gills operation. The word on the backstretch at Mountaineer (I know, it isn't the most reliable source) is that the Mountaineer trainer arrived at Mountaineer with fewer horses than he left Gill's farm with. That a number of them were in too bad shape to race and were put down.
The folks who trained for Gill appear sincere. I just don't know what to believe and I just want to confirm if MoD is alive/out there as I have a retirement home for him all set. I do appreciate your help and hope that there is someone on this site that may have information.
