Hump day kickoff.

Today at Pocono in 10th race with ATOMIX HANOVER there were many top drivers available going for $300k.   Drivers like KAKALY, Wilder, Buter, Bartlett. Palone, Callahan, Napolitano, Andrew McCarthy, Svanstedt, Dexter Dunne due to scratch.    Lots of very good drivers available.    Finished 6th.  Not terrible drive but never got in hunt. Horse cannot race from behind.   Raced very hard first few starts.   if I owned him he would be turned out for year and brought back in January.   Nice colt but now stung.   Started out maxed out.   Was on top of game from Qualifier but now needs greed cash!

     How do these people even have a license to run races ?  That was a total disgrace

I am of the opinion he doesn't run a clean operation. However, do understand there isn't yet solid evidence to support that; his positives tend to be innocuous.

However, what is not an opinion but a fact is the condition Lexus Kody raced in in the MLT last night. Tetrick knew it too; he walked most of the warmup, which was wise since based on how he post paraded, if he had moved any quicker I don't see how track vet couldn't have scratched him. Randy also pointed it out, but hardly necessary as he was clearly lame even at the walk even to a layperson.

It's really a testament to the gutsiness of Kody to hang on as long as he did.

He may be the leading trainer in harness racing, but the repeated lack of horsemanship displayed by the number of blatantly lame horse he puts on the track doesn't go unnoticed. Except apparently by the track vets.

A disgrace...will he stop at the the Burke farm on the way back? Looked to need a full tune up. Will he get around the half in that condition?

This should never happen and thankfully no one got hurt. A review needs to be done. It is an embarrassment for GHT and the sport.
A complete clown act!!!!!
