Globederby19 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 That's fair enough. There isn't a parallel between his misdemeanour and some of the blatant cheating that has gone before. He has a bit of a drinking problem? ?. Geeze from my observations and experience the whole f--ng racing industry has a drinking problem. Sure, one doesn't turn up inebriated at a racecourse to drive Harness horses, but to me it is at the lower end of the scale. A couple of interesting quotes on horse racing for some to ponder. 1 "When Darius the Great bet his empire on a horse, the contest was fixed. Corruption thrives wherever animals are forced to compete for man's profit and pleasure". 2 Animals have no rights in racing's charter, and for more than a century we have tolerated these abominations. And why?. Because we know that a hair's breadth separate's the boldness required to win a fortune honestly from the audacity to do so by cheating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
