Mark Ford "sickened" by Gillis' actions
« on: May 27, 2025, 11:06:23 PM »
Ford told CBC News he's been a client of Gillis for many years, and he was "very upset and disappointed" to learn about his alleged activities.

"There's no explaining any of the actions. I knew nothing about it," Ford said from his training facility in upstate New York on Tuesday.

Ford said Tuesday that most people in the harness-racing community knew of the investigation into Fishman's dealings, but said he learned of Gillis's alleged involvement only when AGCO announced this week that it was issuing its suspension.

"It's just sickening, and it's even more sickening when it hits this close to home," Ford said.

He claims to not know anything about World Of Secrets at his farm, or the horses who took bullets to the head and were buried there, all on film.

Must have been a terrible shock to discover that the trainer you gave horses to because he has a sharp eye for hobble hanging, is using drugs. Unprecedented...

'I knew nothing".  How laughable is that quote?

Someone said a former Ford assistant trainer is a very recently retired AGCO judge, is this factual and coincidence or more to it?

Remember, Gillis had his garbage from Equestology delivered to a house here in Orange County. He didn't live here. 🤔

Fatass Mark can’t possibly believe anyone is buying this.  He needs to be pushed out now!  NJ horsemen need to light up the phones of the NJRC!
