Title: Fred Bourgault Trial "Who cares"
Post by: Zack on April 02, 2025, 10:46:06 PM

I don't know about you guys but I'm so tired of hearing about this I could care less as a matter of fact most of the Horsemen that I speak with could care less as well. It's detrimental for the advancement to harness racing. Why anybody would even consider posting negative news like this is beyond me. What good would come from posting such negative news answer. Nothing.

There are some new tracks that are prospering as well as the Meadowlands making an announcement soon to benefit harness racing.

More emphasis should be put on positive news.  Jeff Gural 'our savior" has some new exciting innovating ideas that will benefit harness racing.

Jeremy Broekman runs one of the leading and fastest growing Jewish Community marketing/PR agencies in the US and Israel is in talks with the USTA. Now this is positive and exciting news!

Very good Feinstein.
If authorities would do their job and rid the business
of these types of characters we would have a lot
Less negative comments.
And because others including drivers are sick of hearing
about this makes a person think they want to protect their own type.
How many rule breakers and cheaters have been caught more
than once or twice served a small suspension and then back
in business like nothing happened.

My point exactly! Having said that,  broadcasting these lawsuits and undesirables is not doing the harness racing business and justice. The proof is in the pudding my friend.

This guy Fred is still alive?  How do you kill a loved animal and wake up in the morning?
