Chapa gets 5 year ban

[jpops757]

Wondering why you throw this trainer ,in general out there? Looks like you are talking about 3 or 4 posibilities. Why make them all look guilty? All these insiders get to me by grouping a bunch of bystanders in with the guilty. If it was Assmusen , Calhoun or Norman, Say so and dont beat around the bush.If you claimed a horse that didnt repeat its form, you were either not very good at assesing the abilities of the horse or they used some means of tricking you. Either admit to being tricked or dumb.

i said this several months ago here, its obscene that the ruling took so long! he was caught red handed or should we say red mouthed becuz he was caught hiding the buzzer in his mouth and spit it out

people are very timid in chicago to claim of catalano and calabrese nowadays after years of not much success off the claim on them. is the trainer locke or pish you claimed the horse off? there could be many reasons why the horse didnt perform the way it did previously to you claiming it, you need to be a little more specific bout the horse. also good trainers know when its time to drop and or lose one especially if its gotta hole in it


howbout when the trainers you mentioned minus norman claim off each other. where you claimed that horse from calhoun and autrey claim off each other alot and do very well

I wish they had mandatory drug testing accompanying reinstatements like this. Otherwise good luck to him turning his life around and making it through probation.

He got banned for having a buzzer, not cocaine.

Those caught with buzzers should have to go thru a metal detector.

Did you read the article prior to commenting?

She misunderstood buzzer and thought buzzed...typical for an Obama voter.

Wow. You guys don't think things through much, do you?

The guy was so desperate for a paycheck he used a buzzer. Yeah, he should be checked for drugs. Doubt he was that desperate for food and housing.

I didn't think anything could top Iwantfreepp's reasoning for taking JV off Animal Kingdom, and yet, how could I forsee this gem lurking just a mere 24 hours later?

Yeah, thinking that anybody ruled off for 5 years should have to undergo drug testing as part of their probation requirements is a really strange and bizarre idea in today's world. So bizarre that you can't even comprehend such a thing

What about drug testing Calvin Borel? I thought he must have been on drugs when he went berserk after last year's BC Dirt Marathon.

Please enlighten us to the correlation between cheating with a buzzer and drug use all knowing one. I don't think that anyone is buying your assumption that he had to be using a buzzer because he was desperate for a paycheck. Where that turns into a further assumption that he is using illegal drugs is even more bizzare logic.
