Maine harness racing is a joke

[Racetime]

Is Maine the only state that allows a trainer/driver to continue to drive after having a positive test and putting the horses back under the wife's name ?

I'm unsure of who you're referring to but I've  heard that maine is one of the worse states as far as jealousy and corruption.  I've known Shane Bacon very well from his PA days so in fully imagine it's true.

I live in Maine and can tell you racing here is pretty bad. It's just not a "product" any harness racing fan can be proud of. Cheap horses, small fields, and no real track to showcase any talent. We've heard rumors for years that a "new track" was going to be built somewhere off I95 in southern Maine. I don't think it will ever happen.

They must suck Bacons cock.  Bacon is dirty and has rats on the inside always.

I remember back when there was Scarborough Downs. The Horsemen ruined it for themselves.

As much as I would love to see Maine prosper I don’t think with that kind of mentality it will.

I used to head out to "The Downs" often before it closed. Sadly, the racing was bad, food was terrible, and the crowds were very small. Today, there are new high-end apartments, single family homes, and townhouses on that land. A supermarket and some restaurants are slated to move into this very well planned neighborhood.

The only excitement at Scarborough the last few years was when Sweeney would announce the hot dogs etc were all $1 before the last race and the old people would scurry to the run down concession stand…
