People care about those things. 95% of the people could care less about racing and a sizable number would want racing to be banned even without the handouts.  If we held a referendum asking the people of each state to vote if the racing handout money should go to racing, roads and bridges, schools, or given to the slots players as higher payouts, what would be the results. I am eagerly awaiting your answer. It will show us all how out of touch with reality you are.

   Maybe  Social Security, unemployment, disability, food stamps, and government grants should instead go to roads and bridges and schools ?     

What does it say about OnGait?

 

IMO, only thing that site is useful for is breeding stock. And even that seems slightly shady.

Correct. Money is the reason he is not suspended. I have lost all respect for track owners that have continued to accept his entries.

Yup. Business as usual.

I said to myself who the fuck is Lord Forbes. I guess the only bred 1 mare a year to him and at one point there were 4 off spring for 4 winners, LOL

I found the following

The Basics on Lord Forbes

Race Record: During his racing career, Lord Forbes earned 11 wins and 28 placings, accumulating $148,707 in stakes earnings.

Progeny Success: Following his retirement, his former trainer bred him to about one mare a year with outstanding results. This led to the siring of Group 1-placed filly Louies Girl.

Ownership & Stud StatusOwnership: Originally, Lord Forbes was owned, trained, and driven by Gavin Forbes.

 Following his incredible early stud results, Gavin Forbes partnered with Macca Lodge (managed by studmaster Caine McIntyre) in New Zealand to stand him as a commercial sire.

Breeding Profile: He is highly sought after by breeders for his high conception rates and his ability to pass on explosive speed.

Thk you for making my point

He’s got such  a high batting average with babies

He’s traing technique has to be questioned

It cannot just happen every yr

I’m not accusing him
I’m just questioning

Sure, you're not accusing him. Will go with that.
