So Jordan Springer was suspended for 10 days because she wasn't striking the horse down the lane? What happens if the trainer told her not to do it?

That seems pretty comedy....

If you get ten days for having a 3 length lead at the 1/8th pole and getting nipped without going to the whip ... Brittany Arturburn would have a month of suspensions.

And if the horse would have got smacked real good they would have said it was excessive use of the whip.Screw So Cal stewards,the most inconsistent stewards in North America.

He didnt tell her not to, was pretty pissed. It looked really bad and I felt bad because she is a friend.

I like Guillot saying that he isnt a cheater. You are from the crookedest racing jurisdiction in the country and your horse just got a positive for Winstrol. There is zero chance of it being "environmental contamination" unless she has been hanging around Golds Gym. There are lots of things that can get into a horses system by mistake, Winstrol isnt one of them.

calling one state more crooked than another is pretty funny into itself.

from what I understand there is a lot of pressure on Guillot to win, his Southern Equine horses have underperformed and is in danger of losing them.

She deserves every bit of the 10 days if not more. She thought she had the race won. She was looking over her shoulder at the top of the lane and thought the race was won. She got caught sleeping at the wheel. It was very much like that race with Rail Trip earlier when he nearly got caught at the wire.

Louisiana is the most crooked state in the country, period.

There is a lot of pressure on all of us to win. That doesnt mean we break the rules. The Guillot/Southern Equine marriage was doomed from the start for one big reason...

Doesthis mean the "Sarge" is going to be the listed trainer for Southern Equine?

No need to. It's burning up right now on its own.

New Mexico is actually a pretty neat state.

LA is a cesspool.
