race 2 saratoga Alabama saturday

Alabama Stakes · #1 08-21-2011, 09:48 PM

10 hoss field....22-1 wins 10- 1 runs second, 23-1 shot runs third. tri pays $3500..i thought it shoulda paid twice that. looked like they did the race. the faves were being choked on the turn.. when you take an all in the tri and get a bomb too run 3rd it should pay alot more than the same money exacta box. what a gyp

Sure it wasn't. Maybe I missed it, but where did he say he hit the race?

I just assumed he did.

Are you suggesting that Julian Leparoux, Ramon Dominguez, Rajiv Maragh and John Velazquez were in on a fix of a race at Saratoga on Alabama day?

This is not Roosevelt Raceway in the 60's and 70's and I don't think even those guys would have had the cojones to fix a race on a prominent card.

difference between did, and fixed. fix is such a dirty word, and is not mentioned in my post.

Wasn't mentioned, but it was implied.

I agree that you didn't mention the word fix in your post, but then again, I can't see why you would state "the faves were being choked on the turn" in conjunction with the suggestion that the payout was abnormally low unless you were suggesting the race was fixed. Maybe I am wrong, but having a hard time reading it another way.
