Where Will The Florida Based Trainers Go Soon?
« on: September 16, 2023, 06:56:10 PM »
What a hole Pompano Park created when it closed for good two seasons ago. So many trainers and drivers have fell off the harness racing planet. With nowhere to race in Florida during the winter months do they revert to only training young horses in Florida at local training facilities? I am guessing horsepeople such as Andy Santeramo, Joe Sanzari, Bryce Fenn, Mickey McNichol have just quit or are doing other things. I am sure others have left the industry too or just rest their horses until the early spring.

It sad what has happened in Florida!

The people of New Jersey who criticize Jeff Gural should take note on how he saved harness racing in New Jersey unless they’re satisfied racing for peanuts at freehold..

The New Jersey base trainer’s should take turns kissing that Jew’s ass for what he has done for them!

And what the hell does Gural’s religion have anything to do with any of this thread? There shouldn’t be any reason that someone’s religion, color or creed be included on Plop.

I for one love it. Let those Florida cheaters starve or go work a regular job. Pompano was full of pond scum. Glad it’s finally bulldozed.

Every cheating stable the past twenty years came out of Florida. It wasnt like the old days when the class stables used to winter there. The past twenty years has odds on stables, bottom line racing, let it ride stables and all of the east coast and Canadian cheaters wintering in Florida. Glad to see pompano fold like a chair and fuck those horse killing fucks. Fishman headquarters is in Florida. Do your homework. Loaded with cheaters the past 20 years.

Let’s assume Larry is correct and there was rampant cheating at Pompano. As a long time on track fan of Pompano I can’t recall any drug positives of consequence there. Was it because the management was too cheap to aggressively test? Was management overly concerned how it would look if they publicized cheating? I have no idea and will add I do not recall many fines of any kind for bad driving. I do recall a few suspensions of top guys for failing breathalyzer tests but that too wasn’t publicized. I had to ask the track photographers why a driver was missing and they usually knew. Any thoughts?

I asked the USTA why they virtually never had fines and suspensions in their weekly report, and was told pompano didn’t send them anything.  It seemed any time someone was caught doing something illegal, they were just told to leave.  Also, it seemed there never was a black box test.

Which is exactly why I said every cheater and scumbag went to winter in Florida. I hope they continue to aggressively shut down these harness tracks one by one. It’s impossible to catch the cheaters no matter how hard anyone tries. Even the olympians find a way around testing only to be caught later on and claim they didn’t know the Gatorade had some ingredient in it. Lmfao

Harness racing has allowed itself to be run down and deserves nothing.  I hope other states pull their subsidy plugs very soon.

Right with you on that seriously my horseplopper friend. Would love to see all of the remaining harness tracks be separated from the casinos and race for only what they generate. Hope it’s coming soon.
