DEAN ECKLEY GETS A YEAR VACATION.

[ferdinand the bull]

It appears there may be a misunderstanding. The information I possess indicates that Eckley is a cover for G Nap, who has been permanently banned from training at Pocono, indicating fraudulent activity. G Nap is said to have enlisted Eckley, another alleged cheater, to assume responsibility as a trainer in case of trouble. Subsequently, they moved to the farm of their associate Simon Allard, where Akins trains for Simon, whose brother has served time for equine fatality and doping offenses. Essentially, it's a complex network of individuals accused of collusion.

Asserting ownership from this group seems to require courage, which is reportedly absent in the current climate, allowing their alleged misconduct to persist until the Commission intervenes, as they did with Eckley. However, consistent oversight is necessary.

It's been said in another forum that Allard has many trainer's in Ontario too. Those trainers are allegedly managed by Louis Roy. Speculation or truth is a question but very believable given this and the history of Allards and Roy

They all using the same stuff locking up purse money all over the world

Eckley appealed but according to yesterdays FAS rulings (11/22/24) his request for a supersedeas was denied because it is unlikely he will prevail. He has to pony up $10K now.

The scumbag horse torturer had nall his horsees scratched today.

Georgie Nap...You are no fucking better using him to train your horses. You should get the boot as well!

[Late to the Paddock]

Yes! The Axis of Evil (Eckley.GNap) was shut down today at Harrah's Philly, it was scratches galore!

JG TUS- trainer under suspension.  Is that the 1st time his horses got scratched because of this?

Yes it’s very very hard to defend this guy but facts are facts.
1 If he was using a substance like this as they tested every horse in his barn not only one would come up positive especially a hormone.
 
2 The horse was just claimed and when asked to do a split sample the state miraculously destroyed the sample that was supposedly negative the day of the claim as he wanted to no a split on both samples.
 
The fact is if you do any good in this business you’re doing something wrong.
And when want you they will figure out a way to get you.
It’s as simple as that!!!

Do you honestly think George Nap cares what you think of him? Who he chooses to train his wife's horses is his business.

You and he might be surprised. Now shut the fuck up and be a good boy. Don't press it or I will have him banned from every track in the Northeast

[gh2009]

Go right ahead and try, and while you're at it, STFU yourself and crawl back under your rock. I love it how people on here trash people who are successful. In your world, if you're successful, you must be cheating, and you're guilty because you choose to associate with someone who is perceived as cheating.

For dummies like this GH guy

Dean Eckley is the poster boy for harness racing bad guys. Since the above incident he has been tossed from every jurisdiction he has raced at even Virginia.

Would be interesting if Georgie Nap got linked to him in the press and other entities, knowing damn well that one the top driver in Eastern PA was using this scumbag for the horses he was claiming and virtually became undefeated. You think he won't give a shit?

Think again.

[gh2009]

Why are you showing me a story from 14 years ago? Having an idiot like you call be a "dummy" is the highlight of my day. It seems like George Nap uses a different trainer every year for his wife's horses, I wonder why? As for him being linked to Eckley, if Simon Allard wasn't linked to Rene Allard, then George Nap has nothing to worry about, now carry on with the name calling sonny.

How is this for headlines

George Napolitano...Top Driver at Pocono Downs and Harrahs Philadelphia has been using horse abuser and known horse doper to train his stable of horses!

Pretty easy to get that out in the press since it is true and well documented.

[gh2009]

The press doesn't give a shit about harness racing. How did his get his license to train in PA? I know, he falsified the application.
