I don't think it is. There is likely more to this story than currently written. The replay of the race is not all that convincing and unless more evidence is released on appeal this will have difficulty holding up. I couldn't find anything on Simon Husbands being disciplined prior.

The lollipop guild will appeal on behalf of Ozzie Canseco.

maybe because a rider gets something for winning a title, but doesn't get anything from the bettors if they hit? i really have no idea why anyone would decide not to ride a horse, but helping out a sibling might have been a good reason not to ride hard.

The Bid picks up on about 20 of these stiff jobs a day, or every time he loses a bet.
