replied to How to save Racing!!! in Horse Racing NFL...how did you come to love it? For me and everyone i know it revolves around having wining days and weekends and meets.This game is about gambling and the industry neds to embrace that fact. Ive corrupted 8 guys all on my own and now all our vacations revolve around the races, and the hook is "gambling"....not the ability of 1 or 2 great horses who destroy a small field and pay $3.20....its chasing "THE SCORES".

That is why I am against handicap races, if we pack enough wait on a champion he/she can become just another top contender. That is the worst thing for horseracing in my opinion Trying to take the approach that other sports do and "market their stars" is wrong minded. As we all know horses come and go and sometimes rather quickly and cant be relied upon. The powers to be have to understand that gambling is its lifeblood, and thats what needs to be marketed. Im not talking about 1 million dollar scores, but show people taking down realistic $1000 and $2000 scores on realitively small bets is the way to hook new fans.Then teach them how its done.

The way to atttract new fans to the game is to highlight and promote the one thing that never changes....the opportunity at "taking down a score" A "SCORE" is the star not the horse!!!

Show them that real people take down a "score" and show them and teach them how its done and maybe you capture that person as a fan of the game.

replied to Asmussen suspended for 6 Months in Horse Racing [Quote: Originally Posted by DannoDanger] I play Monmouth a few times a week and I don't really understand why you would say that. And it's a good point about the size of his operation. My friend is a trainer in the NJ/NY/PA area. He has between 50 and 100 horses (not a big operation at all). Most of them are at Philly Park, where he does most of his running, but he also runs at Monmouth, Meadowlands, NY tracks, even as far as Mountaineer and Laurel. One time a track official found cocaine in one of his feed buckets, and he had a hearing and was facing a suspension. It was at some track that he doesn't go to, but sends his people to when he runs there (I think it was Laurel, if I remember). The point of mentioning this is that my friend has a relatively small number of horses and he can't control everything that goes on. For guys like Asmussen, Pletcher, Lake, etc. it is an impossible task. [/Quote Monmouth Park is fast approaching the lofty status of such tracks as Mountaineer and Delaware Park as havens for cheaters. If you play there you better have a good handle on the move-up guys, not to mention how the pools get distorted after the gates open...solid 3-1 shots are 8/5 before the turn. As far as the super trainers, they better have a good people working for them as they obviously cant be at every operation every day for every race.

replied to Asmussen suspended for 6 Months in Horse Racing nobody hates the pharmacy boys more than me and anyone playing monmouth park needs to have their heads checked, but there is just no way that guys like this, that have the number of operations running that he does, can possibly stay on top of what is given to his horses.he certainly bares responsibility for it, but i know if it were me i wouldnt be at lone star drugin up maidens.
