Would there be a M1 without him?
He did it by the seat of his pants
Deserves a wider berth IMHO
And yeah, its a bad optic when rules change that apply to trainers or drivers of  horses in which he has an interest.
He wouldn't be the first hypocrite in this business

I agree. There's little doubt that the casino at the Big M has always been his dream. I've been there many times. I can't imagine harness racing without that track.

Don't imagine it, it won't happen.  We're getting screwed in every way shape and form.  This is not the past, sadly.  He'll get his casino, with the kind of money they'll be racing for they'll all likely be junkies too.

The past is just that.

  • Sweet: The fact of the matter is the win pool on Beau Jangles was I believe a negative pool,  his real odds not 1/9 but 1/99.  Enough already, we're the real patrons of thius F'ing sport, many of us also care for these animals despite the best don't want drugs and whipping, abuse.  Competition yes!

  • Lockedin with Pace: Robust Hanover was a very small horse driven by William O'Donnell. In fact the late Stan Bergstein used to refer to him as the "little peanut".
