a hundred? no way.
he offers five hundred. no
he offers a thousand. she says no.
he offers ten thousand, she says ok.
they have sex, he hands her $500. she says 'what do you think i am?'
he says that's been established, now we're just talking price.
the guy has no ethics, and took bribes to alter info. is one or two ok? if he only made a couple hundred, no biggie? would i believe him if he said it was only so money? no. he's crooked (allegedly of course).
again, there have been countless conversations here and elsewhere about issues plaguing this sport. now a case is filed. i don't feel bad for any of those charged. if it alters others' behavior, even better.

So what about all the prior misleading workouts being published around other racetracks? The stakes horse supposedly working at Monmouth when he was stabled at Aqueduct and working under a different name? Was that really fraud? How about all the late workouts announced at the track prior to a race, because the horse didn't have a published work in the required say 30-60 days...who is guilty of fraud there? Who allowed the work to be ok'd and the horse to run?
