@Pullthepocket Bring back Triple Crown Bonus. $$$$$ Right now a Curlin bred KD winner is is worth more than the same horse that loses the Preakness. All about the dollar bills. Great winner but will be quickly forgotten.
@scaling_shields I’ve been running clubs for many years…..this works for a very short period of time then people realize what you are doing and go to other places that respect their time. All about the guest experience and this is a negative.
@CalltoActivism Pass the popcorn. Bill is going to blow the whole thing up and people are getting very nervous. Playing chess while they rest don’t even have checker board.
ATTENTION ENTIRE HORSE RACING INDUSTRY:
I am calling for immediate action in the vision, the strategy of changing and evolving this great game we all LOVE.
Either we’re an agent for change and evolution or we are on the side of stubborn, traditionalist self-inflicted demise of the sport.
This beautiful sport is in dire need of a governing body and a national commissioner that will work with states, tracks, trainers, jockeys, farms, vets, auction companies, marketing / PR, current unproductive boards, track employees, the media, the bettor, the fans and most importantly the HORSES. This new governing body and national commission will work side by side with @HISA, whose most important and primary focus will be horse safety and integrity.
Horse racing needs real leadership and oversight that will market, communicate, educate the industry and increase transparency.
Please read the below article.
Retweet if you’re in favor of change and evolution. If you’re not in favor, continue to do what the game has done the last 50 years and ignore the obvious issues of this wonderful sport.
Decide if you want to be a productive agent of change.
If you agree thank you. And if you don’t like change, evolution and real leadership, then you’re part of the problem.
I’m calling for transparency but without a strong vision and marketing plan, communication, alignment and education, transparency doesn’t work.
Let’s have a great and amazing Belmont Stakes Day.
God Bless everyone and God Bless the horses.

@BernardKerik Forget to tell the shoplifters to be polite, not to run with scissors and wear clean underwear. How about cut off the baby finger for first offence….then the one of the other hand….etc etc
@frank_seravalli He’ll end up in Pittsburgh and Shanny should be gone with Keefe as well. Too much talent to only make it to the 2nd round. But I must admit I do love when I see all the Leafs fans putting their 🪑 away from the parade
@offandpacing_ry@Ont_AGCO Rules are meant to be followed and enforced. If not why have them? Nothing against the driver……when there wasn’t pylons the horse and driver couldn’t go inside but it was very dangerous. As for whipping action….pretty sure all drivers know what’s allowed and not
@Travis_in_Flint Less guns is the only solution. It’s the one thing that can be controlled. Mental health is too unpredictable to manage as it manifests differently in all people.
@heylandsberg Isn’t it because of the timing of the whistle and pushing the pad with the stick. NHL should do a better just explaining the decision. Transparency and leadership is what the league needs. They are on an upswing but keep stumbling. #fixit
