@TheMariaBorell @SwifttKirk get in the way of a good, made up story

@TheMariaBorell Gary is one of the most honest and decent men in the history of the business. He is a breath of fresh air. God Bless him.

If something happened at Seth Hancock’s farm, would Arthur Hancock be blamed?

If something happened in Bill Mott’s barn, would Riley Mott be blamed?
Everyone knows the answer is no.

@TheMariaBorell People don't seem to understand that you cant be found guilty by association by a judge or jury. Its not a crime being related to someone. Unless of course a kangaroo court like KHRG declares it is. I guess no legal scholars amongst them.

@TheMariaBorell Ive always told you, if you were a man, you wouldnt be treated this bad

@BloodHorse @BH_FAngst As all of Linda Rices horses get scratched today at Saratoga. There is no justice. Maria is as clean as a whistle, unlike others.

[Brooklyn Steve @BrooklynSteveA]

@TheMariaBorell There is no justice today. This is so unfair. All I can say is I'll stand by you until the last day. I'm sorry you are being treated so wrongly

Tomorrow the KY board will vote on my trainers license. At this point, there is no legal or factual basis to deny it.

After an all day. 9-4pm evidentiary hearing, the hearing officer found no evidence to support denial. He described the stated reasons as ‘vague and inconsistent’ and formally recommended reinstatement in his 12 page recommended order. That recommendation is part of the official record.

My history in racing is clean: NO drug positives and NO disciplinary violations. The 2016 charges were dismissed, expunged, and legally treated as if they never occurred. Expunged charges cannot be used as a basis for licensing decisions under Kentucky law. They are not part of my record and cannot be considered. The Commonwealth of Kentucky permanently closed the case. There was no conviction, no finding of wrongdoing, and no legal barrier to my licensure. I have passed the trainer’s test again when I was licensed in California and complied with every requirement that has been placed on me.

Racing has always allowed second chances, even for trainers with multiple medication positives, suspensions, and serious violations. I have none of those. There is no legal reason to deny me a license when others with far more serious issues have been granted theirs.

I am not asking for special treatment. I am asking for consistency, fairness, and for the board to follow its own process, its own hearing officer, and the law.

Spoke with @RaworDie about the hearing in March in regard to my training license and the findings ahead of Friday’s vote. Link below

[Brooklyn Steve @BrooklynSteveA]

@TheMariaBorell @RaworDie Nice to hear people letting you have an outlet for the truth.

[Brooklyn Steve @BrooklynSteveA]

@TheMariaBorell I hope the whole world finds out how you have been railroaded. You deserve better. The most decent person, who takes better care of her animals than anyone.

@RepoleStable They recently did a survey of junior HS kids what they want to be when they grow up. #1 was influencer. And there is your problem. They don't want to do real work. Just want it easy, and money handed to them. Long days and strenuous labor, not happening.

@itsalexkay It's low tide
