does Gural have horses with Ake??
There's no way Gural would have horses with any tainer that would do or instructed such cruelty to a race horse. After all, Gural is trying to clean up this industry & would be setting a bad example utilizing such a trainer. Gural would also be seen as a hypocrite for using such a trainer.

What happened to the thread on here about one of his colts dying? Are the people that run this site covering for him?
WOW, that's shocking. (1) Maybe he isn't aware of this abuse? (2) Or maybe because a sharp lawyer eventually got things cleared up, that is enough for him to turn a blind eye? (3) Or maybe he sent his lead investigator across the pond & interviewed the second trainers that testified that they were instructed to use the prod, but they all recanted their testimony?
long time ago those electric rods were used very commonly at Roosevelt to trainI could never do that to an animal makes me sick if this is true
In the 60's-70's they were used a lot out West especially at Hollywood Park. They were called buzzers. They were kinda like those old joke toys you held in the palm of your hand and gave an electric shock to whomever you shook hands with. They were in the whip handle and the users were called PG&E men (Pacific Gas & Electric) It must be noted that horses have almost no impedance to electricity and can be electricuted to death with a six volt car battery. It is referred to as Jewish Lightening and was used to kill horses for insurance purposes. A double A battery will scare the shit out of a horse. Users would go out in the paddock during a thunder and lightening storm with a pair of jumper cables and zap. Too bad none ever got zapped themselves.
some truth here except i NEVER saw anyone go into the paddock during a lightning storm with a pair of jumper cables and zap them...JUST HOW DID THAT WORK ANYWAYS?
