Title: How Many cheaters ?
Post by: caddy on September 30, 2018, 12:26:13 AM
Trackside tonight and was kicking curious style w/ several friends.  Asked them to speculate just what percentage of trainers are cheaters these days.  My one buddy said it is very low - maybe 5%.  The other guy argued that it is far higher, his number was 25%.  I hate to be so negative, but - on my turn, I said it's 50%.  Might anyone chip in on this most unscientific poll? 

is the percentage of cheaters :  5%  /  25%  /  50% .

 How many misogynists? Certainly a huge number.  I don't care about cheaters in the races, because you are only cheating amongst yourselves.  But the way this industry discriminates against women is appalling.

I'm assuming you mean drugging horses to win races. If that is the case, I believe the number is very high, maybe 75%. However, most including myself find out that what we use and what is being used by the "successful" trainers makes no difference. There is truth about the adage..taking a knife to a gun fight.

You are on target that the question is about drugging the horses.  and, your adage is also ever true - as the small group of trainers that try to compete legitimately thru training, nutrition and good care of the animals really don't have a chance against the despicable creeps that load up the racers on undetectable go-go supplements.

IF YOU CALL STACKING LEGAL DRUGS LIKE PENA DID, THEN 80% IS MORE LIKE IT. THE VAST MAJORITY OF THOSE POSITIVES WERE THRESHOLD VIOLATIONS AS WELL, BUT LETS NOT LET FACTS GET IN THE WAY OF HOW BETTORS SEE THE GAME THEY STILL PLAY ANYWAYS.
