wow, sounds like most of you lost a few 2 dollar bets and have to blame it on something. Probably never owned or raced a horse. Never had a horse get sick, and you didnt know until the race was over. Never had a horse throw a shoe, or run with a shoe hanging off its hoof, breathing issues, tendons, ligament issues, have a piece of equipment fail. Drivers make mistakes often, sometimes bad judgement, sometimes slow reflexes reading a race, too aggressive, not aggressive enough, let the horse get lazy near the finish and get caught and on and on. Not all, but most owners would know damn well if a driver was stiffing a horse and that driver would not be driving for that owner any more. Might get away with it once or twice but it always comes out in the wash. Because a horse does not race the way "you" expected it to does not mean the "fix" was in. If you are so sure report it, many ways to do that and still be able to hide under your rock.
