i understand your point rainman
however assuming they want the 5% regardless of ownership would assume these guys try to win every race they drive in, given the comments i see on this site many would strongly disagree this is the case
also drivers owning horses may work opposite to your theory, since they own the horse they may actually race less aggressive some nights not wanting to hurt the horse( their investment)
either way i just think it is unnecessary and problematic
as for amateur races, they should be non wagering and certainly not held at the big m, however if people are wagering on them than they will continue
If you draw 7 & 8 on a 1/2 mile Track and 8 & 9 on a 5/8 mile Track, chances are the drive will be less aggressive. As an owner, I hope for a check in this scenario, and I say thank you if it happens! Tough to bet outside posts too. If there is no interest on the tote board, you have to assume a less aggressive drive! Look at the money they bet on amateur races! In some cases, more than regular races! More value as a bettor but more unpredictable because of the drivers involved!

Still time for some on here to stock up with tissues and hand cream, because I see precious Brett is going to be on The Big M show tomorrow night. Be still my beating heart.

That’s not accurate at all. Saratoga, Pocono, Meadows and the tracks in Delaware have great purses. Not to mention Scioto. Pocono has 12,500 overnight claimers going for $11,000 purse. Thats not chum change, that’s good money for the average Horseman who races in claiming conditions
Are there any rules at Pocono? Do they test there? This is a sample of who you are racing against: Eckley, Taneyhill, Pena, Chrissman Jr., Belcher, Brittney Dillon, etc al

drivers should not be owning horses
its a conflict and a bad look for the sport
disagree as a bettor, nothing makes more confident tht I'll get a competitive drive than seeing driver or wife listed as owner. i don't see it as a conflict or bad look. and its often hidden.

I think the voters of NJ would be stupid not to vote for both the Meadowlands and Monmouth getting casino gambling. The casinos that will open in NYC are sure to put both a dent in Atlantic City and neighboring venues. My buddy Frank, who works at Foxwoods and live in Clark Falls, Ct. told me the management there is very concerned about the impact the NYC casinos will have on them. He told me the Casino estimates about 15%-20% of it's visitors are from the five boroughs of NYC. I think Foxwoods and Atlantic City will take a "hit" when the NYC casinos are up and running.

First of all I hate to see my friends fighting! Normal day at plop.... Hello... What do you mean hello? Who are to tell me, hello Let me clarify... I'm definitely out at the end of this year (gambling) and Rocco has shown a desire to lean toward breeding, and has said his displeasure in this forum, and on the livestream...but his next move is his even if it contradicts his last thought. Also he sent me the most beautiful pics of the JK colt, absolutely wonderful. Standing, nursing, just pure joy! Let's keep a good thought! S2M also makes a good point that only time will tell...already in the t-bred industry we've seen some Baffert horses become not the greatest sires who were foretold to be, and some that ended up proving out. Who was loaded up, Bulldog, I don't know, hard to accuse anyone even with a history. But if we had to bet our lives and knowing most of the competition is it's hard not to believe not only are they drugging and cheating but they broke the barrier, found the formula, and are now for some time doing it to 2 year olds.

The number of my posts has zero to do with what you said. Again, I believe you are either misinformed and/or have been giving wrong info. I did not say you are a liar. But to keep things accurate, please post your
Sources to back up this info. Thanks.
Point to what's inaccurate first, what is misinformed, you can tell my opinion from a hard fact, cant you? You can tell my conclusion from a time machine that I didn't jump into 27, 28, 29, 2030 can't you Go big mouth, and stop telling everyone who has an opinion different from your that they're lying or implying. If someone thinks some tracks purses are dog crap, and they think the standard is Yonkers then you gave yours they gave theirs. Maybe you should site which elementary school taught you words Because you can disagree with an opinion, but cut the crap with not factual, misinformed, inaccurate like your opinion is what the 11th commandment
