Default Trainer's e-book on "Cheating"

Trainer Glen Thompson, who is a local trainer at Monmouth Park has recently written an e-book entitled, "The Tradition of Cheating at the Sport of Kings". it is written like a high school research paper and is very choppy to say the least. In the book he slams the NJRC, track vets, fellow trainers, and even goes as far as blaming track VP Bob Kulina for George Washingtons fatal breakdown in the Breeders Cup. An interesting read to say the least...... www.sportofkingsnovel.com

It is laughable, an absolute embarassment that exposes the author as delusional and in immediate need of an indefinite stay at an inpatient psychiatric facility.

never heard of him.


regarding the breeders cup,

the breakdown of g. washington was horrible and i will always believe that he should not have run in that race. he did nothing the year before at churchill.

he was a great turf horse who had not won a race in over a year, running on a sloppy, muddy track, the jock was hitting him on the back stretch, he clearly did not want to be there. they could saved him with a scratch or the jockey having enough sense to pull him up. i would guess the connections have to take resposibility but i know nothing about anything. very sad.
