Hoosier started changing for the bad when small local trainers that only trained for themselves or had 1 or 2 small owners that would buy a few baby’s with hope of having a sire stakes champion all of sudden started training 20 or more horses for trainers/owners from out east. I suspect this is because the said trainer wouldn’t get approved for liceanse. The small trainer then all of a sudden learned the game and became an overnight sensation.  Say what you want about Tyler George but he wins races from the detention barn, from the farm, stable from Hoosier Park,

People do indeed hate a winner.

This hate rises from jealousy which is a sinful act since it is selfishness.  This of course is direct opposite of humility and gratefulness for God's gifts. 

I heard putting together a S E A L team and heading to Goshen!

I'll be there VERY soon. Taking my camera.

For me this is a huge topic as to me HOoSIER PARK was the most fair racetrack on the planet as you could be fourth over and just sweep by with a honest pace but today this track caters to drug trainers as its a speed highway,    At one time i really believed GABE PRUITT who knows the game well would be one guy that seemed to care but i was dead wrong as to me he is just another suit,              If you told me 20 years ago that a driver like AARON MERRIMAN Would lead the nation in wins with a drive hard from start to finish every drive on every card i would never believe this could happen,     To me HOSSIER rates with WESTERN FAIR and MOHAWK AND dover were its  a chalk fest with racing that is hard to watch and every race at these tracks it a 1-5 who is tough to bet but they seem to win in todays racing.

Simple to solve the problem. In the past, they had Trackmaster ratings races. The range was mostly 58 to 66 Tm. They also had money-earned races. Ie Nw $1000, Nw nw$1500 etc etc. Now they allow claimers to enter these classes. People are stuffing them. It's a small group of trainers up there, and a vast majority won't claim from each other. Plus, there are others that will never put their horse in for a claim, so they are biting the bullet and getting no money. The claimers are dominating. Put the claimers by themselves, like the beginning days when Cumberland 1st took over. I agree, you cant bet Cumberland the way conditions are currently written. I'm shocked upper management is allowing this to happen, for they are only concerned with handle.

Day 165, Ford must resign.
