'73 I am guessing and the major betting scandal that ensnared all the top Metro Ny drivers

Lotsa info online  articles even in the NY Times

Peter Gerry, Ken McNutt, Carmine, Insko, Buddy etc etc etc

Forest Gerry not Peter.

Ok yes Forest Gerry jr, who never drove - he was a conduit between the drivers and Peter Vario, mobster, who is the son of Paul Vario as profiled in Goodfellas. Coco Cormier and Frank Popfinger caught up in that shit too

let's remember Buddy Gilmour ran over mob money in 1966 by winning a race he was not supposed to, was dragged to a hotel room and beaten up, then lost his license for almost 4 years. Got it back in 1970, but by 73 was in trouble again. And there's more.

I know for a fact, personal experiences, that Buddy loved running over even his own owner's money.

Plenty of room for him in the Hall Of Fame, but not Tony Morgan and his 17,000 plus wins. Right?
