"Gulfstream Park Racing & Casino announced Dec. 27 it will give random breathalyzer tests to jockeys, stewards, assistant starters and members of the gate crew when its meet begins Jan. 5."

Vic is too involved with his beloved wife and step daughter to fly over the Rockies and call races, be an agent, or hawk bloodstock. I thought he made this all crystal clear and then you chased him away.. We hate you!
