The season before Plunger Walton went to Europe - he couldn't show his face at Saratoga.

The fact that so many bookmakers went running to the press with stories about what kind of scoundrel he was - I think that is pretty telling proof that he did in fact CRUSH them.

If you believe the bookmakers - the racing officals at Saratoga would have had Plunger Walton killed if he showed up there...
