“I have made hundreds of millions of dollars, and people actually think I’m going to put a jockey on the back of a $5,000 claimer, knowing the horse is sore and risking the guy’s life?” Gill said. “I’m not going to go on under those circumstances.”

"Gill has entered four horses for Wednesday night’s program at Penn National, but the jockeys’ boycott remains in place...I’m going to run my horses Wednesday,” Gill said. “Those other guys can do whatever they want.”

This fella does come across as a BS artist. Is he going to leave the sport voluntarily or not ? History says no.

This reminds me of the movie "Crash". There's not one person with redeeming qualities to root for.


It's certainly as juicy as Lanzman vs. IEAH vs. Mullins though.

This is a glorious victory/coup for president Stephanie Beattie.

Besides having the best juice .. she's remarkably calculating and cunning.

Your trainer now isn't exactly easy to move up on ... but if you want your best shot at the alw check - give him to Steph Beattie .... I've seen her turn a bottom level maiden claimers with almost all -0 Beyers on her form - into a runaway allowance winner.

I know anyone who's winning at 30.7% with well over 2K starters since '05 is going to have a few pretty extreme move-ups .. but that one was most entertaining.
