Poison Dart Shooters????
Very bizarre story out of Hong Kong. Link
Supposedly tied to organized crime there, and HOPEFULLY just intended to slow the horses down. I say that as I hope they were not trying to kill any of the animals. Interesting to see how this plays out.... ALostTexan

its bizarre alright.. racing there (and betting!) is so massive over there.. It could well involve the triads.. just goes to show how much people are willing to do for money.. On a non-too dissimilar topic,

A co-worker of mine was in Hong Kong all last week. This was huge news there; the biggest story.
FWIW, he was telling me there's around 10 TV channels from his hotel room and TWO of them were strictly horse racing networks. At least somebody somewhere gets it.

How did they really hope to score with this? Arent the stewards going to hear the things going off? and arent they going to find needles everywhere? ANd arent they going to notice horses getting wobbly? or not breaking right? I dont know how syndicates run but me thinks there might be easier ways to make money.
Could be more the work of a mad genius type who hadnt thought the whole thing through. Har!
