I surely have NO INTEREST in betting MVR at the moment and I imagine others feel the same. I just don't get it...NFL, MLB the integrity of the game is paramount and with us it seems like we are simply on autopilot 95% of the time.

Integrity? Hey, at least in the pps they show you if a horse is on lasix, or you know of equipment changes, etc. But integrity in the nfl?? Ha. They tell the players 30 days out before they drug test. Anyone who pops is a complete bozo who should be banned for life just for being so moronic they couldnt get clean like their teammates could
Any trophies for steves response above.

not sure if Tom Brady would agree with you...spygate..bounty gate..players get popped all the time for ped's...i just dont see anything or hear anything in terms of reprimands for racing..

ok so the identifier missed it? Honest mistake..who brought the horse out? Was it the same barn as rubys queen? How did the wrong horse end up in the paddock anyway? There is more then 1 mistake here..a chain of events unfolded.

Had the employee done their job of checking the tat, the chain of events wiuld have ended there.
thats why they tattoo, to prevent stuff like this....their employee got lazy, and got caught...and ought to be fired.

Highly doubt anyone will be fired, fined or sent to the principals office

They may not, depends on what the investigation finds. If the checker does this often, assuming a horse is correct, they may well be sacked.
i think tho your cynicism is unwarranted regarding racing and integrity.

Agree, phil. This seems a case of laziness by the person not doing their job.
