In my opinion you are an asshole. Atlanta did nothing wrong. She never tested positive. In fact, Rick Zeron did not have a positive either. The issue deals only with improper labels on Gastrogard.
She is a great filly, and the new owners are lucky to get her

If as HT claims that it's all about improper labels on Gastrogard and not a positive then why has nothing been made public. Guilty or not in any suspension by AGCO the details should be made public and not hide behind rule book numbers that the public does not know. Other than the Ron Adams suspension the Zeron suspension are the two biggest in Ontario in recent memory, you would think others would be put on the back burner.

 It's interesting to note also the suddenly everyone knows it was just Gastroguard.

ORC has a dossier 10 inches thick on Ricky. Perhaps they have had enough now under AGCO. Not the first time he has been caught with unmarked medications, was on Sandy DiFlorios hard drive of clients that got swept under the rug bc it was gonna bring down the biggest names. Taking horses to a certain farm to get preraced, and his name appeared on a list Randy Rankin provided (somehow was getting confidential information before it was released) who eventually was murdered (connected to something unrelated to horse racing).

So just like Al Capone who wasnt convicted of racketerinng, murder, or bootlegging, he was charged with tax evasion.

Maybe the powers that be are singing a new tune, if we cant get you on this then we will get you on that.

Anyone who thinks Zeron got six months and a big fine for MISLABELLING GASTROGARD, is either blind or outright lying. There's a lot more to this story, but unfortunately the truth will probably never come out. If this was true (and it is not) Zeron would have came out firing, went to the press etc. Instead he has went away, appealed and hopes they will let him race all stakes season and reduce it to 60 days come November.

The real joke here is the so called rules emforcers in Ontario. Someone needs to grow a set of balls & fine these people massive amounts of money, with lengthy suspensions. If the rules breakers appeal, it should be heard within 30 days & if the appeal is lost, mandatory doubled fines and suspensions!!!

Believe Ongait is 3% and why wave it? There have been many of partner disputes and when they run them through Harrisburg or Lexington with fees to the sale, catalog, and consignment. So if they buy the horse back they only payout the 5% to Zeron and 3% to Ongait. Horse goes for 1.5m they lose 45k off the top. If they truly believe in the horse it's a no brainer putting the horse on Ongait. The 5% owner values the horse at 4m. Other owners say pound sand we will find the value. If things get nutty and horse goes way over value then owners walk away with a lot of cash. In a no lose situation and we see this every year when owners can't agree.

Post by: shuffledagain on February 14, 2019, 01:18:35 AM
taylor,

IMO a historically bad drive by Ake on Six Pack in the Hambo Elimination got Atlanta the win in the final. Terrific filly, but I’m of the opinion that Six Pack was, and is the better racehorse. And the only thing that beat him was Ake’s drive.

Does the best horse win the Hambo every year?  Of course not. History is full of upsets on the track for a variety of reasons too numerous to count. Some are because a horse doesn’t perform well that day. Some are because a horse gets a great drive/trip, etc, etc.  But never have I witnessed, IMO, such a buffoonery driving job on the M/L favorite to win the Hambo. Perhaps you can point me to a worse drive on a favorite to win the Hambo. I’d be interested in seeing it. And I’d suggest an asterisk on that one too, but I’d be surprised if one can find a drive that bad.

Not many comparisons as to which horse may have been better, but I’ll rest my opinion on this one:

Kentucky Futurity Final : Six Pack 54.4 to the half, 54.2 last half, third quarter in 26.3, last quarter in 27.4. Final time 1:49.1

Kentucky Futurity Final: Atlanta 56.1 to the half, 55.0 last half, third quarter in 28.2, last quarter in 26.3. Final time 151:1

Six Pack’s last half in 54.2 after a taxing 54.4 first half , IMO, was the better of these two races.

I’m not saying Six Pack is 10 lengths better, that would be absurd, but I do believe if the two were to have met that day ( and for that matter Hambo day) Six Pack would have been a length or two victor.

I’ll also throw in Six Pack’s 150.0 Stanley Dancer tune up for the Hambo

You, I imagine, are of the opinion that Atlanta was the best 3 year old (filly or colt) last year. Any owner would think that, especially when , in the premier race of the year, they win it. 

As to your opinion of me being an asshole, you’re welcome to that    It does seem a bit below a man of your stature, but I’ll chalk it up to you being under a bit of pressure about maybe losing a horse you rightfully love. I didn’t create that issue for you, a partner of yours may have. I’d suggest any venom you have directed at me be directed elsewhere.
Title: Re: ONLY FILLY TO WIN THE hambo on auction at ONGAIT?
Post by: horses first on February 14, 2019, 01:49:28 AM
Shuffle, are they really that much at risk losing the Horse? They only need to payout 5% to Zeron. Then 3% commission unless they made some deal with Ongait. May be Eric was nice to do a freebie who knows. They aren't at much risk unless shit gets out of hand and they walk at a price they are happy with. My guess the other three owners with 95% are on the same page.

You have to be absolutely blind to think 180 days was given over mislabeled Gastrogurd.  How do you even mis label it in the first place?  What did they find when it was tested? I'm guessing omeprazol? LOL

 Maybe the shock machine is more in play than the mislabeled bottles.?

The shock machine brings a different meaning to the term ..being lit up....

Seems I remember one of those machines being found in the stable where the winner of some big races came out of ??

IMHO--all the owners of Atlanta including Rick Zeron--got screwed by the ORC.

Atlanta is a great filly,right alongside the best there has ever been in this County.Her speed in the Hambletonian was awesome to watch-gave me goosebumps.

The system of "guilty when charged-and you have to prove your innocence"-goes beyond anything in the USA Constitution or Society-and is what is causing terrible situations to occur-even by the elite in the Sport--system is rotten to the core.

It should rightfully be "innocent until proven guilty".

We now have a situation where GURAL-would not allow RicK Zeron to race at his tracks--even BEFORE he has had a chance to prove his innocence-or explain the findings.

Apparently being under appeal and allowed to race at Gural tracks-only applies when Gural picks his trainers. Rick Zeron  is not one of these select people.

Changing the Commissions standings of Guilty when charged would prevent Gural acting like he does-and also Rick Zeron appearing to be a total ahole.

I can understand somewhat Rick Zerons actions--he made Atlanta-took her to dizzying highs-and loves her. He possibly also feels he has been screwed by the ORC and does not want these group of total dickheads-ruining what he/owners has with his wonder mare.

Its all very sad-and I really wish some high powered Lawyer takes on these Commissions and takes away this ridiculous authority they have of being guilty before allowed to have your chance to prove innocence..

Atlanta is a great filly,right alongside the best there has ever been in this County.Her speed in the Hambletonian was awesome to watch-gave me goosebumps.

The system of "guilty when charged-and you have to prove your innocence"-goes beyond anything in the USA Constitution or Society-and is what is causing terrible situations to occur-even by the elite in the Sport--system is rotten to the core.

It should rightfully be "innocent until proven guilty".

We now have a situation where GURAL-would not allow RicK Zeron to race at his tracks--even BEFORE he has had a chance to prove his innocence-or explain the findings.

Apparently being under appeal and allowed to race at Gural tracks-only applies when Gural picks his trainers. Rick Zeron  is not one of these select people.

Changing the Commissions standings of Guilty when charged would prevent Gural acting like he does-and also Rick Zeron appearing to be a total ahole.

I can understand somewhat Rick Zerons actions--he made Atlanta-took her to dizzying highs-and loves her. He possibly also feels he has been screwed by the ORC and does not want these group of total dickheads-ruining what he/owners has with his wonder mare.

Its all very sad-and I really wish some high powered Lawyer takes on these Commissions and takes away this ridiculous authority they have of being guilty before allowed to have your chance to prove innocence..

Sorry but they have had the goods on him several times before but decided saving face to the industry and not have the scandals hit the paper as well as WEG crying about what they would do to the horse population were more important than wanting to protect the integrity of the game.

The protection of certain individuals were paramount bc some had SC directors as owners. Copies of cheques, files on hard drives showing who bought what and when are some of the evidence they had but decided not to proceed.

Rabbit is right, the ORC/AGCO is an incompetent organization that has only one agenda, their own paycheck. An old boys mentalit whose motto is Don't Rock The Boat.

Anyways, I hope Crawfords retain her and likely absorb the increased ownership and keep the other partners involved. I'm not sure if they negotiated breeding rights when they bought in but at least they will do right by her.

In my opinion you are an asshole. Atlanta did nothing wrong. She never tested positive. In fact, Rick Zeron did not have a positive either. The issue deals only with improper labels on Gastrogard.
She is a great filly, and the new owners are lucky to get her
You should be ashamed of yourself.

You cried after Lady Shadow, a $2Mil winner at the time got banned after testing positive. 

You got the horse barred because you made the choice to have her illegally injected.

Now you are crying because "Atlanta did nothing wrong."   You made the choice to leve her with Zeron after he got suspended for illegal drug violations.

Do you understand how stupid you look?

Bad choice of words.

That said, you put a horse with a guy like Zeron, you are signing off on anything and everything he does. 

Just like Taylor did with Adams and Lady Shadow. 

And then cry victim when something goes wrong?

Sorry, doesn't work with me.

Trainer responsibility yes.  All for it. 

I am also for Owner responsibility. 

At least don't cry like Fucking Fantine when something goes wrong.

Just a shame a guy like Taylor is gifted with these fabulous horses.

Sweden and Europe has been buying and taking away America bloodlines building European racing for decades to come. Once the money dries up in the US when casinos say enough is enough the Swedes will just head back home with a thriving harness product. The US will be a few on a shorten GC and then fair racing. As far as a 3.0mln price tag it's up to the group to pay Zeron 150k and Ongait 120k and keep their mare. Or cash out at 95%. There could be 1 wild card what if...Ernie Martinez puts together a group and bids 3.1mln. Then can't pay within a few days. ngc3 ngc3 ngc3

So, Zeron rejected 50k for his 5%, and now gets about 27k more than that. The question is whether, suspension or not, he has blackballed himself from the ring of wealthy owners who can afford high priced yearlings and racehorses.

When i read the article about the ' abused ' owners  i almost threw up,  really ?? lets look at this  Ny bred filly purchased pretty cheaply WINS THE HAMBO  and now all of a sudden the owners are abused !!  lets look at this    Crawford bought in just prior to the hambo-  Who knows what bonus she gave Zeron !!! , Now they are all crying integrity--- Please -  Lets See   Crawfords go to  guy is Oakes - say no more,  Grant uses Moreau and Gassie ( the JUG retention ' treatment' was the biggest black eye in the history of standardbred racing !! ) and Welll Howie- he trades training for legal fees for some VERY questionable trainers--- Ron Adams just for example... so they go all high and mighty !  i do not understand this ,  is it hypocritical or what ?   The whole Zeron  issue mess is just that,  Ready Fire   aim , Gural and Clay Horner   .... is Zeron a poster child for clean ?  NO   but the crap around this  Not right.. What really bugs me is this hurts Atlantas reputation !!
In my opinion it will be very difficult for her as a 4 year old, firstly  the Colts get bigger and stronger, she is not Huge,   its going to be tough,  there are lots of good open mares.  i have not read one post where these abused owners acted appreciative of what ' team zeron' did for them !!!   time will tell Who will train ?  taylor ?   rant complete

I don’t know what breeding rights any the original ownership had but there must have been something. Expect the Crawfords got all of the 25% breeding rights with the 20% ownership. At the $1,550,000 one might surmise The group minus Zeron set a price of $1,500.000 and then the 20% owners popped for the extra $50,000 for the 5%, so they all have 25%.   We will probably never know..

The move to Alagna was more of convenience next door shed row. But really when you spend that much to get the mare back who other than Burke would you put her with. Burke has the top juice and he is Teflon no rulings against him sticks.

When trainers are barred from certain tracks for reasons unknown with no positives but just assumptions of guilt, BUT.......Burke who has multiple offenses either pending or swept under the carpet gets a horse to train from those who CRY THE LOUDEST about integrity makes this game the biggest joke of all.  tmbz1 tmbz1 tmbz1 tmbz1

So you wish everyone employed in racing to be put out of a job-because you were treated unfairly??
Come on man-if you cant stand the heat-get out of the kitchen.! Why are you on the site?
I will be the first to agree that racing administrators have let the sport down immeasurably. However when you fail-(whether fairly or unfairly) you pick yourself up-learn from it-and move on. Show the mfers that wronged you-that you have moved on and are past anything they did to you.

1) The TC02 was not your typical black box caused by high bicarb--it was a base excess positive-NOT tco2. Its the biggest joke ever perpetrated on horsemen by the PA Racing Commission---test is flawed on many levels. I just wish Ron Burke had taken this to the Courts as this test would have been kicked to the curb where it belongs.
2) Oxycodone Human drug-was the famous pissed on the straw by a groom on pain meds case-so was thrown out as contamination positive.
3) Glaucine---another contamination positive-found in the bark of the tulip tree-and when horses eat the sawdust=positive.
4) Gabapentin-another human drug-contamination positive.
In terms of horse racing--1) is a BS positive could happen to anyone  and Base excess not a performance enhancer in fact could be the opposite. 2) Oxycodone is a pain killer-so if used on a horse would kill any pain it may have=performance enhancer 3)Glaucine-would be great for bleeders or any lung problems=performance enhancer 4) Gabapentin-would help a horse with muscle problems-like tying up=performance enhancer. 2-3-4 were contamination positives with 0 effect on the actual day of race.
In summary--Someone like Burke who employs about 50 staff- has the added problem of having to cope with members of his staff taking drugs. These contamination positives are total BS and NONE should see the light of day-should be dealt with privately-and not called a positive-IF they have 0 effect on the horse at time of racing- as it gives the Sport /trainers a bad image-and haters like those on this forum-will jump all over it and give the sport a black eye it doesnt need..

TTitans--the truth may only be your version of events. I happen to believe Burke is not immune from getting the hammer thrown at him if he violates the rules. I do happen to agree with you that its much harder to get someone like Burke kicked out because he has the money to fight it. Man makes +20MILLION$ a year thats about 2Million amonth.
So if he gets a BS black box-that can put him out for 30 days he will throw $100,000 at defending himself -no problems. How many little guys like yourself get thrown out because you dont have millions to fight the bureaucracy.? So IMHO dont blame the horsemen--BLAME THE SYSTEM!. Life isnt fair when it comes to the Law--OJ brutally sliced 2 people up-yet got off. You and me would be sitting in jail rest of our lives for the same thing. Then multiply this system multiple times for Racing Commissions--and you can see-the little guy has no shot defending BS drug positives-or any kind of infraction for that matter requiring major$$$.

The money actually made the game more corrupt. Before the slots nobody could afford to fight a positive. The game would already have been dead for years if the slots never happened though. I don`t blame these big barns for getting all they can but I`m not going to sit back and applaud while they pull another fast one either.

It stupid to think the glaucine positives came from sawdust. I know someone who got a positive and was bedding on straw. Was told to switch to sawdust right away. Fact
Yes that is very true-that trainer wins a lot at Freehold Im told. However -new York did months of testing and SOME of the positives could be explained by eating sawdust that had tulip tree shavings in it--others highly doubtful But since in Court you would have to PROVE that the Glaucine came from other sources--not so easy.
My guess is because there were so many big names attached to this(some obviously administered it)-they decided it wasnt worth spending millions in Court-so they just placed levels of Glaucine in place so that it could not be used medically in the future-and got one trainer as a scapegoat by giving him days for a level that would have had the horse eating more sawdust than hay.

Bond, I am with you on the TC02, I know a trainer who got one on a horse that was physically impossible to tube.

Oxy and Gabebtin are definitely cross contamination.

Glaucine was 100% a pre race, that just happens to be in tulip sawdust that the horse needs to eat 10 lbs of

BOND SAYS:

1) The TC02 was not your typical black box caused by high bicarb--it was a base excess positive-NOT tco2.

I SAY:

**That’s why the horses blood came back normal when he was placed in detention.

BOND SAYS:

2) Oxycodone Human drug-was the famous pissed on the straw by a groom on pain meds case-so was thrown out as contamination positive.

I SAY:

** An easy out as always when it comes to human drugs being used which many are!!

BOND SAYS:

3) Glaucine---another contamination positive-found in the bark of the tulip tree-and when horses eat the sawdust=positive.

I SAY:

** Biggest joke of all. A bottle of “injectable glaucine” was found when a trainer was busted with that case still pending!! The Vet doing the testing said the horse would have to consume pounds of sawdust to come up as high as some of these horses did. Some trainers split the loads of sawdust and only one of the two came up positive?? So only half the load contained the poplar tree?? Nice try!!

BOND SAYS:

4) Gabapentin-another human drug-contamination positive.
In terms of horse racing--1) is a BS positive could happen to anyone  Gabapentin-would help a horse with muscle problems-like tying up=performance enhancer. 2-3-4 were contamination positives with 0 effect on the actual day of race.

I SAY:

**Gabapentin is similar to Lyrica and is used for diabetic nerve PAIN. A very powerful pain killer according to someone who actually takes Lyrica. Another human product being used on these poor animals.

As you say “IN SUMMARY” ....... because BURKE has the money and name to fight it everyone will continue to sweep it all under the carpet!!

You say people on this forum are haters?? I think not it’s called being fair!! I don’t care who you are a little guy or a big named trainer it’s time to do what needs to be done and stop anyone and everyone “Big Name” or “No Name” and not pick and choose who can get away with it and who can’t!!

POker King-my friend-you are 100% correct about the picking and choosing when it comes to penalties.
Gural does this almost on a weekly basis--keeps some racing while others go out-for essentially the same thing.
Im waiting for the day is picks on someone who can actually fight back to have a glimmer of hope things may change.
The Commissions KNOW that they will have to spend major dollars trying to out top trainers-while a little guy they use as scapegoats because they know they dont have the funds to fight it.
This is what I referred to as the "HATRED" because people with money get off-and that is why the system is broken. There are no "Court appointed Lawyers" that can help the little guy-and the big trainers will fight a positive for years if need be.
