Matt Bax...Class 1
« on: November 26, 2024, 10:03:10 AM »
So Matt Bax ends up with a $4,000 fine and no time. I believe it was a Morphine positive
Clearly being the son of John Bax has its benefiits.

For comparison's sake, Moreau got $40,000 and 10 years for a class 1, where the powers that be know it was actually Fillion's doing, but Moreau was the trainer of record.

The system is broken.

Kawartha Downs announced on Wednesday, Nov. 20 the appointment of Lindsay Bax as the new Harness Racing Manager, effective immediately.

Bax takes over from Jim Huck, who has overseen harness racing at Kawartha Downs for many years. Kawartha Downs extends its sincere thanks to Huck for his dedicated service and leadership in harness racing at the Fraserville, Ont. oval.

Bax brings a wealth of industry knowledge and passion to her new role, having spent several decades involved in the harness racing industry and hailing from a well-known racing family. Known for her hands-on approach and her commitment to delivering high-quality racing experiences, Bax is set to bring fresh energy and new ideas to her home track.

“We’re excited to welcome Lindsay to the team and look forward to her vision for the future of harness racing here,” said Richard Weldon, President at Kawartha Downs. “Her experience and dedication make her a fantastic fit for this role, and we’re confident she’ll continue to build on the strong foundation Jim has established.”

“I’m thrilled to join Kawartha and work alongside such a passionate team," said Bax. "This track holds a special place in my heart, and I look forward to connecting with our racing community and enhancing the experience for both fans and participants."

In 2025, harness racing at Kawartha Downs will return to Saturday nights, pending regulatory approvals, with an exciting year of programming in the works.

Moreau is not a good guy. IMO he knows what is going on. That being said the system is definitely broken.

"Moreau is not a good guy. IMO he knows what is going on. That being said the system is definitely broken."

And Bax doesn't.  There needs to be an explanation provided when these decisions come down.  Helps with transparency and benchmarking for the next incident.
Anyone who owns or trains horses deserves that much, at least.

Bax was also allowed to continue racing while he appealed.

Didnt even need a David Drew type beard or anything.

Fair to say EVERY HARNESS RACE run has at least one cheater in it?
Yes, that'd be fair.

THUS, NOT ONE HARNESS RACE IS 100% HONEST.

So..why do government bodies allow us to wager
on any event if integrity is ALWAYS in question. They are OBLIGATED to protect the consumer.

We are fools. They are fools.

John Bax wont need to wear any suntan lotion while in Florida this winter. All that shit he has covering his face from having his head up WEG,  COSA and inevitably AGCOS asses, should provide enough protection. This business is in ruins.
