There's almost 4 seconds difference in the 4f split time. This looks like a guy letting his bro win a cheap race, and a 4% trainer covering for him. The jock isn't under a gag order is he? Why isn't he talking? I mean look at those last 2 races. Don't they look a lot tougher? Watch them. They are tougher races. That's a tired horse. Whip or no whip that horse was exhausted in those 2 previous. Trainer is gunna blame that on being hit? I know trainers are good salesmen, but wow!!

THe race prior to this was for Maiden 12,500 no shot that race was tougher. As for the trainer covering for him He made a statement concerning the race several days before Simon met with the Stewards. I do not know Jon Leblanc but I have talked to a couple of trainers up there one Being Mark Casse and he has told me Mr Leblanc is a hard working stand up guy one who is very well respected on the backside.
