As far as this particular situation, if you actually knew anything accurate about me, you could assume I do have some actual knowledge of what went down and that is what enabled me to have the strong opinion I posted.
So, why not enlighten the people to what you know? You talk about hear say but how can we discern your being accurate when you dont even give an inkling of what you know.

When you dont say anything substantive other than 'this is crap, whatever' (verbatim), how can anyone take you seriously? What you say you know is hear say to anyone else unless you shed some light on it, and if you dont, you sound like you are just expressing some form of sour grapes.

If you know something, say something.

It's no different than having the winner of the first and you're horse is a late scratch in the 2nd.All they did in essence was scratch the whole 2nd race.

my question is the race wans't run, it's not like a late scratch. why not pay the pick 3 and the pick 6. i got paid off!!!!

I have been in situations in the jocks room where weather conditions are a concern wether it be driving wind and rain to the bottom being frozen under a soaked track.
Management comes into play alot of the time when riders have meetings with them BEFORE the races, usually managements stance is ride the first and see if the conditions are ok, when deep down they really know its not ok they just want to see if they can get jocks to ride.
