Hes a rider, and hes got an illness. But maybe one of you geniuses could explain to me why that should affect whether he could ride or not as long as he shows up clean to work.
In the rest of the USA if you are a guy with a drug problem, everyone encourages you to work. Whats the differnce if hes bagging groceries or riding a horse? Hes still just a guy with a problem.
Wanna know what this is all about? Those mopes on that phony board wont ever make 6 figs and it kills em that he makes a bundle when he rides!!

Most of the people on the CHRB are multi-millionaires so you are wrong about them not making 6 figs a year. Rick Shapiro was the President and CEO of Western Harness Racing. His family owned the harness meet that was at Hollywwod Park back in the 1980s. I know the whole family. they owned Native Diver. They are extremely wealthy. John Harris is a huge horse owner and breeder. He is a multi-millionaire.
