Ness has had at least one horse get DQ'd from purse money for a bad test here.

Lets add more drama to the story. This horse that got DQ'ed was actually in COOL CLUE's 2nd place start, his first start here. They went two months with out it, and now Reavis claimed a horse that is out of claiming conditions and we actually have a win at Arlington Park now (without the picture). Purse distributation and everything already went through.

Thank you Canani and Mr Calabrese for cheating, we appreciate it.

Great guys filling the box only to add more work to the horseman's bookkeeper.

At least Ness had the presence of mind to finish 2nd to himself with his winning horse that got DQ'd out of an allowance win here earlier in the meet.

Default And its the horseman's fault?

This is from a locally based owner on Arlington's facebook page.

I don't know who this specific trainer is, but I know of two trainers, that are good guys that have stalled here in the past, that got denied.

Quote:
Why has AP refused to grant stall space to trainers and owners who have been racing at CD. I own two filles, raced then at CD, and had planned to come to AP. My trainer was told there is not sufficient space to stable his string of 12/13 head. I live here in Elk Grove, have raced at AP for three years, and am very upset with the way we are being trated. The lack of barn space is not true. The races being run so far at AP for the most part have short fields, which are dominated by even odds horses either owned or trained by two people. No wonder intertrack betting at AP is down.

It's never boring in Chicago.

Catalano is going to be using less of Baze (to shake things up?) and Canani filed an appeal resulting in a 30 day stay of suspension.

It was a delight indeed watching Queen Frank growling at all his minions and munchkins yesterday afternoon after being served up the chin music from the racing board earlier in the day. If only his director's chair would have shown some termite damage, as well, after he dropped his fat ass into it.

That Human Liver Spot was certainly sitting in the catbird's seat the previous two days with three out of four winners on Saturday and Boy Scout Day on Sunday. The rush he got from seeing 500 cub scouts prancing through the paddock on Sunday was probably enough to keep him off Viagra for a week.

Answer is yes.

He doesn't like travelling because he gets busted everywhere else but Calder. Either the 2nd or 3rd time he has been busted in Illinois

is there a connection between arlington and super testing and lack of horses?
or is it just the money (which is a big 'just')?

There is just a lack of middle class horses(25 claimers to Allowance horses). There is a shitload of babies back there, 5-10k claimers, and then their stake horses that they ship other places.

We entered Colonel Klink in a 25nw2 race 6 times and it didn't get more then 5 horses, which is why we were forced into a IL nw1 that we are probably gonna scratch out of.

Look at Normanruth today, he has been ready for 20 days and we had to 'settle' for this spot. He is probably gonna run good but it is unreal they can't fill a nw1 route race on poly.

We'll see what happen next week with Churchill closing, although Ellis made is awful hard to leave KY given same purses as here and weaker competition.

I think you're right on target there. I look for more allowance races to hopefully fill over the next couple months (I hope, as I normally cap those a bit better than 5k claimers). Either that, or you may have to ship to Ellis.

it's a bird at oaklawn...i think an appeal is coming up on that, but i don't see it getting overturned. especially considering the ruling they just made on another trainers appeal.
