No need at all to replay the horses breaking down over and over. Shame on ESPN.

Gill comes across like he's falsely accused of all of this especially when Penn. National says nothing to challenge Gill's corruption rant.

On a side note the cheese hill thingy is a great segway from Gill. It all has sort of a Monte Python feel to it. "Bring out your dead...."

"Because we use the best cheese you know"....

Looks like the guy needed to work in a backround check, where did he find these trainers San Quentin?

What happened to all of Gill's horses? He got out of the game?

If he was doctoring his horses they surly wouldn't be of much use to the owners and trainers that ran him out of town, would they?

I think Gill is just a mis-understood victim here......

Sorry, my fingers slipped on an icy keyboard

He's got the sincerity of a used car salesman. Good riddance.

I tried to track/find Master of Disaster as I had a retirement home for him. I ended up in contact with three trainers who all were supposed to have him. A trainer in West Virginia supposedly took most of his horses. however, MofD was not in the group, despite what Gill's staff stated.
In the end, he could not be found with anyone. You do the math on that one.
