Filly got an 81 Beyer Fri night off a previous non-Ness best of 58 at Parx. Check the split times for her race - she never slowed down under a hand ride. Freak performance for a horse I owned, know, touched, saw radiographs of, etc. Simply wasn't a better horsemen's training effort, better placement, better jock - as an owner and bettor, what happened isn't acceptable or explainable.
But I respect your suggestion that the racing media won't do anything. I completely agree..... guess that's the saddest part of all and the point of my rant.

Yeah, you sure seem like a person pretty happy with the profit they made.
That's the problem with whining threads. You have to make up your mind. are you going to whine, or gloat? Can't do both.
Again, you're preaching to the choir here. You're a bigshot though. Can't you make something happen?
