Harrington Race 12...

[Harness racer]

Perfect of example of a let's stay in this class stiff job!  Rally late to look like you tried.  Don't believe me watch the replay.

Bingo!  That was pretty obvious.  He had all day to pull and sat buried on the rail.  Rallies for 2nd behind a bunch of dying pigs.  He was 2 seconds faster than that field.

Q:  What will be done?

A:  Nothing as usual!

Definitely "Nothing as usual""..Its been going on for a long while. If we can see it, Then you know the judges see it.

But it's a close nit community most are related in someway or another. And the "D" name is holy in Delaware racing. The old "don't rock the boat" mentality!. Hell you had a presiding judge who raced horse's in other people names for years!

Now you have false ownership that's rampant and wife's down as trainers so you can keep driving if positive test. And if you mention it to anyone your told to mine your business and shut up! mention it here and boom Delete!

Another lack of effort in the stretch to stay in the class longer.  Race 8  #4, same suspects, same results!  The winner's driver is working on his horse and the other like a statue.  Any minimal urging and he would've gone right by from what it appeared.  I'm sure the excuse of I was just trying to hold him together would be used even though it won't be questioned.  That's the standard trotter/rainy weather answer.  And you wonder why the T-breds get all the money and harness is widely considered a joke!

This isn't new. It's been going on forever. I remember Ray Schnittker's father bragging that Ray was brilliant for using that strategy to make money.
