Who's the cheating trainer and where's your proof? Or ya just making up more nonsense?

Faraldo's trainer Banca was arrested.
Ford's trainer Gillis was suspended for 5 or 10 years.
It's is public knowledge. Do you realize how dumb you sound? Carry on playing the fool...it suits you.

There's never been a better time to own a horse. I've got a couple of three-year-olds racing for big money

Thriving sport.

Using a cheating trainer & numerous bad actors at his farm.
Faraldo too using a cheating trainer.
How does a leader of a Horsemen group get away with cheating the members?

Who's the cheating trainer and where's your proof? Or ya just making up more nonsense?

The penalty is a joke. That is why the sport is littered with cheaters.

Correct. The cheaters have won. Whether it is USA or Canada, criminals have infiltrated racing commissions and now protect their own. Check the names of appointed judges and racing officials. Many have laundry lists of violations from when they were racing. Apparently they found Jesus and convinced someone to hire/appoint them into positions of power but it is all a sham, as the ones hiring were also criminals at one time. Once again, the cheaters have won.

Nix Nacken has an amazing stride. Watch the replay of the race and then watch the slo-mo of the finish as just eats up the track effortlessly. I have owned many trotters over the years (from 1970 through 1995) and most of then I bought as "mature" race horses after their 3 yo season. Aside from the usual (vet, assessment of potential soundness issues based on confirmation etc.) the single most important criterion was the gait/stride. If he stays together, he is my Hambo pick as of today. Apex is a magnificent creature and may be the "highest" bred trotter ever (based on both Walner and Mission Brief being 1/2/3 of all time for male and female trotters), but Nix Nacken will out-trot him comfortably based on where the two are, as of today.

I don't think Walner or Mission Brief raced long enough. Top 10....maybe.

When are people going to realize this isn’t a coincidence?!

This keeps happening because people are leaving shit plugged in overnight, hay next to electric, etc

Angers me horses die from people not paying attention

Agreed, Jared.
