Gee, awfully sensitive aren't we? I guess Pletcher is above any chicanery. What happened to Left Bank and a couple other nice horses he had drop dead on him a couple years ago at Saratoga? They ate some bad grass. Yeah, right.

They are neck and neck right now Da Hoss. Its guys like this actualy that we have to thank for this place being so popular. Most of us used to post over at ESPN where there was no moderator and the filth that guys like this post here was ten times as bad over there. So we migrated and have been pretty troll free over here for the most part.

Well, I guess that everything that happens in horse racing is above the board. Talk about a bunch of naive people. As Bob Dylan said "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows"....

As far as "The Robot" (Pletcher) goes, it seems he gets some sort of preferential treatment. The guy was found with a positive two years ago for a horse that ran at the Spa. He got 45 days. When did he serve the suspension? In the dead of fvcking winter when nobody was running anywhere that mattered. He should have served his 45 day suspension at the next Saratoga meet. If you think this guy is clean, I have a bridge for sale.

I don't really give a sh!t. i pay my dough and watch them go and understand that there is a lot of underhanded crap going on. It is part of the game and always will be.

You sir are not only a moron, you are an uninformed moron. Pletcher did not serve the suspension in the dead of winter you simpleton. Thats because he hasn't served it yet, it is under appeal. So like a typical troll what you don't know just make up. And since you don't seem to know much, I just have to assume that you make it all up. Have a nice night sweetie.

Well they just dismissed a positive in California on morphine against Frankel that was like 4 years old, mayeb older, just last week.
You can appeal until the appeals run out of until the money runs out. In most cases the money runs out, lawyers are very expensive. But if you are Frankel or Pletcher and you have the cash to fight it, you keep fighting until the bitter end.

I guess he must be innocent. The Robot is obviously above reproach in your mind

Simpleton, moron. Call me an idiot and an ******* if you like. Who are you? A shill for the "integrity of horse racing?" Talk about an oxymoron.

I love the game. i bet my dough and watch them go. And I have opinions. Have been playing the game for 30 years. I am not a big bettor. I am presently ahead for the Saratoga meet. I have been at the Spa for four days so far. Will probably go back for a few more.

I will eat crow if Flower Alley wins the Woodward....but I doubt it will happen
