Title: Nice drive Allard!
Post by: Headpole Dave on May 04, 2013, 08:43:27 PM
Anyone see the beauty in the 12th race tonight at the Big M? And yes I had big money on him to win/place. Allard has a horse that's sitting third and literally running over Tetrick in the two hole but won't show him air at the three quarters. Sits in on the new Meadowlands passing lane instead of pulling on the right line and has to go inside pylons to avoid killing Tetrick... And the horse still was only photoed out by a nose hair. Either he's incredibly stupid which I'm inclined to believe or he's not trying to win. I'm pretty sour, I hope he gets days after that fiasco.

I happened to go to the OTB to cash my tickets for the day and watched the race there while waiting for the results of an inquiry on a Balmoral race.   I feel your pain.  Don't know what the hell he was doing!  I didn't have any bets on the race, but the people there who did and bet on his horse were not happy campers.

I am guessing whatever carrot they fed him they gave him too many carrots before the race.

I thought he should have been placed behind the 5 who he interfered with also.

I just watched the replay though funny stuff!

Didn't Allard get DQ'd for virtually the same exact move a few weeks ago?  Campbell started to duck to the inside & Allard went inside of pylons, got back on the course & won it, only to get DQ'd?
