In this latest outrageous demand from the current charlatan they have empowered to represent them, they want the trainer to reimburse them for their 10% if there is a subsequent DQ for a drug positive. LOL!!!! I want the riders to reimburse the owners/trainers every time it is clear that they are the main reason their horse is beaten when it should have won. Further, I think they should carry their checkbooks with them so as they are returning to the jockey's room after a race they can refund the money the fans wagered on that same horse that they caused to lose. Fair is fair, If it is the riders fault let THEM pay back everyone who THEY cost income. Good idea Manley, Go talk to to Reverend Jesse, maybe he can help you pray for industry support for your initiatives, because that is the only chance you have.

Bravo! Couldn't agree more. Their perverse sense of entitlement is beyond belief.

How about riders that ride for obvious and known juicers? I guess they should be rewarded if those guys don't get caught.....AND if they do.

They are solidifying a very bad position in racing.
