He used to own a horse with Shawn McDonough as his trainer , got really fucked over . Dave probably opened his mouth about how crooked the races are. Race secretary agosti is shady, you got mike torcello on the racing board, yet his 450lb trainer Sam smith gets positives every meet , slap on wrist yet wins trainer of the meet every year. They let Dave McNeight jr, cohen, presto, Jackson brothers , Dave Russo all to train, all known for putting the needle deep in the vein. Finally someone to speak up and they fire him.Just like back in the old days when cheating , betting crooks Todd haight and joe zambito were there, you questioned them , you drew the #8 hole or didn’t get in the next time around. Some things just never change .
