Horse was a false favorite.....hors es form is spotty.  Horse really no serious class , facing some better horses.  Horse had no chance to win or be second after he did throw a few steps and bear in......you guys are wrong about this one.  And I do know what I am talking about.
I see far more blatant stiffing, as in driving into blind switches, taking a tuck behind a 50 to 1 shot.  Bartlett has too much to lose and very little to gain tanking a horse like this.

Drove the horse perfect and looked like a winner .Unfortunately the horse had to be steadied because he was getting rough veering   Horse may also bled and went flat late .
ARE ANY OF YOU DRIVERS ???

You'd have to be blind to not see what he did in that race.  CRIMINAL CHEAT

Then why the choke hold at the end?  Horse was loaded with pace.  Just sticking up for your own I guess.

Even people new to the game will say "have any inside tips", like they know it's rigged at times.  You never hear anyone ask that about a football game.  Sport is doomed and this is another nail in the coffin!

Anybody ask Russo what he thought?  Trainer should know.

Odds are he wouldn't speak out against the great Bartlett as to not be black balled.

The trainer shouldn't have to say squat-----although he should and could. However, it doesn't matter if the #'s were fine. It's optics and public perception. If the NJRC doesn't jump on this, Gural et al should. He still has private property rights. I can't imagine the excuse for this.

M1 should have nothing to do with it. This is PJ and NJRC. I'm skipping the judges and calling the two investigators I already know. The more I watch he's never close to Ryder, looks over and the instant he see's him goes from tappy tap on right side "if horse is running in don't you reach over to the left?" and immediatley RIPS. He didn't just grab, and he kept ripping him through the wire. If he just keeps as he was he's second. From there we can all make our assumptions. BUT, the public got fucked. And that's what matters here.

What did the investigators say?

They need to check if ELITE left him off the ticket, but they wont.

Do you think Elite is sending in envelopes?

Nobody said he would have won, they said he would have been 2nd. To answer, why would he drive the horse perfect into deep stretch, only to stiff? You wouldn't think that but the visual looks bad.
