The USTA permits backdating of all ownership certificates. Further, it is 90 days from the opening of said meet. The commission can require evidence of sale of any horse along with copy of check/wire paid for each horse that was transferred. Not saying they will do this but they have authority to do so. Further, the occupational license truly is governed by the states not the feds. The tracks can forbid anyone from participating on their track whether they are licensed or not. The USTA used to be able to stop people from racing by drying them a license but now many tracks do not even require a USTA license. The USTA is truly a record keeping entity without and true authority in the courts. The power they had in the past is no longer evident. The states look at occupational licenses for racing the same as a nail technician or barber. No difference.The casinos truly want nothing to do with racing as it cost them funds and headaches. These indictments will fuel casinos to push for the requirements of having racing to be removed....perman ently. This will require a vote by the legislature. This is possible.I personally believe that horse racing needs a powerful lobbyist to be very active asap to help control collateral damage. I am sure there is little support for something like this but harness racing is hanging on by a thread. They need strong leadership now. Today. Not tomorrow.
You will never get elected to the board unless you kiss Beegles ass, and wait in line for your turn. More corrupt than the MSOA, in same league with NY SBOA.
They´re dealing with the fucking FBI not the USTA, Jazzman your nuts
