Another well done message Chuck.

I am finding it incredibly hard to get the bad taste out of my mouth from Saturday. From everything Eight Belles to the PETA nonsense to Randy Moss to the distasteful connections of a potential triple crown winner to the fact that I had to fly to Vegas to bet on the CD card because the major parties invested in this industry can't decide upon a fair splitting of the dollars I am investing. It's tough enough to be a fan so I can't imagine how tough it is to be heavily invested in the game.

The silence in the packed Hilton sportsbook after Eight Belles went down will stay with me for quite some time.

thats good but i think something needs to be done about the "meds". i kind of agree with moss on this. we are the capital of "meds" society. from horses to humans. everything is not solved with drugs. these guys(trainers) would be booted out of most every other country. and now we get horses with problems just because they rightly won't run them that way. the horses are breeding and perpetuating the problem.
