Gural said that two of the people had their counsel reach out to him to inquire about the suspensions. Maybe those where the two and after discussions were permitted back by Jeff. According to Jeff, there was a path but only after some context as to the relationship with Fishman was established.I also think those two mentioned didn't purchase BB3 off of Fishman which seem to be the breaking point with Jeff. Again, not disputing irregularities in Jeff's position of who was barred and who got a pass, just trying to have an educated discussion as to why. I think it's important that we stay laser-focused on the various commissions that did nothing with this damaging info.
Wouldn't it be nice to someday see honest people competing again. Honest people getting a shot to win some of the money that has been unattainable due to all the cheats.
Never happen it's the nature of the beast to fuk over your fellow man. It's not just horse racing. Its every sport where there's money involved.
Well said and couldn't agree more. Most owners have a job or business and get into the game with others to enjoy some free time. Most just want to break even and treat the barn staff well. Then you have the others who rarely own with others, are on top of everything and will not accept poor results. Those are well known and we should strive to get rid of them at all costs and any trainer associated with them for some period of time. They, along with the select vets who are always associated with the high percentage outfits, are the scourge of the sport. I just have no time for the lazy and indifferent commissions that haven't protected the other 90% of the industry. Pathetic and good for Petrelli for sticking his neck out to hopefully get things going in the right direction.
You know what amazes me? is the time and dedication you put forth try to impress people that could care less about you when you have a family that you've neglected.. That's simply amazing to me.
What is amazing to me is how people like you try to deflect from the cheaters. What is your interest in keeping the cheating?
And this I do agree. But harness racing is special that for the most part the same people who govern it also compete for the money. And the other night I believe I pretty much verified what most of us agree on. Even the commissions are owned. What did Zubkoff say? Very good friend Howard AND he used to train for him. So he has a monetary interest with him.
When are you going to give it a rest and start thinking about your family? Nobody really cares about these people
