94 starters that night. 65 from the same trainer, his horses were brought in through the back gate to avoid TV cameras who were there trying to do a story about this

His drivers are accused of "Team Driving" (given instructions what to do and where to finish) and won't comment except for a very few whistleblowers

In another video they showed how his horses are segregated by ability at the farm/training center and proper care only given to the classier ones, horses used to clog up the races are penned together and given minimal care.
 
They still pumped in 130 million in betting on these races over the year.  How dumb and degenerate are the bettors there?

That entire system is a joke on many levels! How can 1 or 2 guys decide who gets to race? They have legit stables not allowed to race a single horse for weeks. You may get a  call a week prior to have your horse ready a week ahead after not racing for a month, and then again you may  not get the call at all. Horses are constantly shifting in and out of training. There is alot of frustration with the system for sure!
