How do horsemen eat and survive with all these bad checks you see on the usta lately. Worst part is they are for starting fees. Clearly they aren't doing to well if they can't pay the starting fees. What gives?
All I said was there was a lot of cross breeding at any track, I don't think it's as prevalent with the Tbres. Places like the Meadows, Vernon, Buffalo, Northfield, and the entire state of Delaware should do DNA test to just be safe, ya ain't fucking a close relative. No knock on harness racing,
Harness racing has a lot of cross breeding, look at any track or training center. Tons of family connections.
Why the slam on harness racing? I've dealt with both harness and t-bred trainers for years. The harness ones usually paid me. I can't say the same about the throw-a-way breed. The t-bred breed may have a lot of money at the very top, but for the average guy their stud fees and training bills are out of site. Their industry is in no better shape than harness. I like the family atmosphere that makes up most of harness racing. If you don't like harness racing, go to another site.
