Was it a coincidence, a form of bad luck or a mere fact, that the horse racing wagering public, (horseman/tax payers/American – International simulcast audience), were once again robbed, of their hard-earned monies, on the 6th of August 2011, from the venue of the Saratoga Racetrack, when the NYRA Stewards peculiarly declared, Bound by Humor the official winner.
What had to be peculiar, about the Stewards above decision, was that the NYRA Stewards, after their bird’s-eye view, of severe interference, that marred the late stages of the race, by the eventual winner Bound by Humor.
In the first instance, the inquiry sign was lodged, and later withdrew their inquiry and undoubtedly compromised the Straight Course rule, and allowed the result to stand for an obvious CDI/NYRA high authority reason.
In all reality, the stakes were high, as the last leg of the pick six carry of $800,000.00 was run at Saratoga Racetrack on the 6th of August 2011, which unfortunately allowed the door to be opened for another lesson of CDI/NYRA secret in-house corruption, of them attaining personal financial gain, at the wagering public’s expense.
Unknown to many horse racing public fans and enthusiast, once again, this secret method in-house CDI/NYRA corruption would manifest, but this time with a massive twist.
The decision of the NYRA Stewards to allow Bound by Humor to keep the race as the official winner, secretly allowed, certain CDI/NYRA shareholders and or officials, to secretly attain personal financial wealth at the wagering public, horseman/tax payers/American – International simulcast audience expense.
Directly, after the running of the 11th race, the NYRA Stewards lodged their Inquiry sign, and the buzz from the TVG/HRTV commentators and horseman/wagering public, was that the 9 live pick six carrier “Bound by Humor” had to be disqualified.
They all came to this conclusion of disqualification, after watching the instant replay of the head-on version which clearly shows Bound by Humor and race rider, causing severe interference, in late part of the race, to the third and second placed horses.
This meant, that there was a massive chance, that the pick six carry over of $800,000.00 was heading for another possible carry over to the next day 7th of August 2011, which would give the vulnerable wagering public, a chance, at the massive pick six carry over pool.
This was short-lived, after the race meeting Stewards, also known as the policemen of horse racing and the only protectors of the wagering public’s hard-earned monies, declared the 9 live pick six carrier Bound by Humor, as the rightful winner.
This came, as a massive surprise to many, as this was after the Stewards, in the first instance, rightfully posted their Stewards Inquiry sign, after the horses crossed the finish line.
Which undoubtedly, was due to the Stewards witnessing Bound by Humor and race rider, causing severe interference to both the third and second placed horses, in the late part of the race.
The major question had to be asked, who were the holders of these 9 live pick six tickets, undoubtedly, it had to be certain of CDI/NYRA shareholders or the Stewards pay roll high authorities.
Which on all accounts was and still is contrary to Thoroughbred rules and regulations and House and State Rules of all states.
Due to the facts and evidence seen in the Daily Racing form report below which clearly emphasized……….
“The stewards immediately posted the inquiry sign, but ultimately let the result stand, saying it was too close to the wire, we don’t feel it altered the outcome,”said Braulio Baeza the NYRA steward, which had to be the eye opener to the in-house corruption of the high authorities of CDI/NYRA conning the wagering public of the whole pick six pool of $800,000.00….
Sarataoga: Pick six pays $86,701 for nine correct tickets after inquiry in final leg
By David Grening
“SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – There was a wild finish to Saturday’s rich pick six at Saratoga, which came one stewards’ decision away from resulting in an approximate $780,000 carryover into Sunday’s program.Instead, the pick six was hit, returning $86,701 to nine correct tickets. The winning sequence was 5-4-1-6-5-6. The consolation payout (5 of 6) was $318.Bound by Humor ($11) won the last race, but not before surviving a stewards’ inquiry. Five strides from the wire, Bound by Humor, under Rajiv Maragh, came out and bumped with eventual third-place finisher Ground Force. Also, second-place finisher Wee Freudian appeared to crowd Ground Force as well. Bound by Humor won by a half-length. Wee Freudian got second by a neck over Ground Force.The stewards immediately posted the inquiry sign, but ultimately let the result stand.“Too close to the wire, we don’t feel it altered the outcome,” said Braulio Baeza, the NYRA steward.Had Bound by Humor been disqualified and either Wee Freudian or Ground Force placed first, there would have been a pick-six carryover into Sunday, NYRA officials confirmed.There was a two-day $215,398 carryover into Saturday’s card and an additional $1,017,811 was wagered into the pool.The sequence began with fairly logical horses Silent Thunder ($14.20) and Higher Court ($3.90). But many tickets were dead after Trix in the City ($50.50) won the De La Rose Stakes as the second-longest shot in the 10-horse field.Favorites Turbulent Descent ($3.90) and Tizway ($10.20) won the Grade 1 Test and Grade 1 Whitney, respectively, before the last race.Prior to the last race going off, Molly’s Ship, who was the 5-2 favorite on the board, was scratched in the paddock after becoming unruly. He tossed his rider, Javier Castellano, who was thrown into the fence and was shaken up slightly. The horse was ultimately scratched, and Castellano, who had some pain in his right elbow, was eventually fine.”
It was only obvious, that the horse Bound by Humor and race rider (whip in left hand) had to be disqualified, by the Stewards for a myriad of reasons…..
(1) severe bumping and boring upon the third and second horses – which did alter the outcome of the race
(2) the race rider of Bound by Humor had his whip, in his left hand which added more fuel to the fire to the severe interference.
(3) Bound by Humor tried to two savage attempts upon the third placed horse, near the finish line.
(4) In other words, the Stewards knew that Bound by Humor and his jockey, were in violation of the Thoroughbred rule and regulation, titled under the banner of the Straight Course rule.
After examining the facts, of the Daily Racing Form report the next day (7th of August 2011), beyond any doubt, it proved that the NYRA Stewards acted in the capacity of the dangerous term of “vested interest” to obtain personal financial wealth.
This term of vested interest, secretly allowed the Stewards, to violate the above rule and regulation, which should prove, beyond a doubt, that they made their decision, to benefit their pay roll CDI/NYRA shareholders and or their high authorized officials, to capture the $800,000.00, pick six carry over pool a criminal offence.
In actual fact, this decision of the race meeting Stewards, caused more damage, than what the human eye could see or the intellect could understand.
Firstly, the Stewards decision, affected the true reflection of the race result in many ways,
(1) prevented the wagering public of collecting their tickets wagered on the second placed horse from win, daily double, to perfecta and trifecta and superfecta etc, and even the third placed horse of place bets and perfecta wagering etc.
(2) It also affected the ownership, trainer and jockey, plus the grooms Stake results, for the second and third placed horses.
The major question to be asked who was holding, the 9 live pick six tickets, attacked to the horse Bound by Humor, on Saturday the 6th of August 2011, but undoubtedly, the high authorities of Churchill Downs Inc (CDI)/NYRA.
This had to prove, that the Stewards decision was a conspired act, of their pay roll high authorities of CDI and NYRA, which gave them the opportunity, to once again rake in the massive pick six carry over pool of + – $800,000.00 – 9 OTB pick six winning tickets.
What makes even more interesting, seen that CDI/NYRA are self-governing Masonic bodies, (CDI only have to answer unto themselves) since 1789, which authorize them to deliberately operate, from private property racetracks, for the purpose, that nobody can really check their policing of horse racing, and their method of control of all betting pools and their dividends and ticket holders.
So in other words, the likes of the 9 live pick six tickets, that were riding on the horse Bound by Humor on the 6th of August 2011, at Saratoga Racetrack, is confidential and nobody will ever discover who the 9 live pick six ticket holders were.
This undoubtedly, goes for all the years of horse racing industry from 1789, in other words the wagering public are in the questionable, yet supposed to be trustworthy hands of the holy than thou CDI/NYRA at all times, meaning 24 x 7 year round.
Another important fact to consider, is that the self-governing body method of CDI/NYRA from 1789, gave CDI/NYRA the power and authority, to allow the CDI (NYRA) conglomerate companies, to control the majority of owning racetracks privately and unknown to many horse racing wagering public, it gave CDI/NYRA, the privilege to control the majority outlets of OTB’s, meaning off track betting facilities in America, simply to be more specific, CDI own 8 OTB in Illinois and 10 in Louisiana etc.
Which obviously should prove beyond a doubt, or could we say, a foregone conclusion, that the high authorities of the CDI/NYRA, were holding the 9 live pick six tickets, to the $800,000.00 carry over pool, at Saratoga racetrack on the 6th of August 2011.
What makes this a serious matter, which has to be classed as a criminal offence, was that the NYRA Stewards, DELIBERATELY, on behalf of their superiors, violated their own House, State and Thoroughbred Rules and regulations.
Nevertheless, in any court of law, the above crime of the NYRA Stewards, which has to be classed as a criminal offence, to the 3rd degree, simply refer to the typical example of the Florida State rule and regulation titled as “Florida Statues 550.235″ which stipulates…
“Any Person” which includes the NYRA/CDI officials etc, who attempts to affect the outcome of a horse race…….or who conspires…..is guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s 775.082, s 775.083 or as s 775.084.
What, has to be a clear explanation to the term “Any Persons” (Florida Statues 550.235 #2), who attempts to affect the outcome of a horse race…….or who conspires…..is guilty of a felony of the third degree, was how the NYRA Stewards, declaring the marred horse race on the 6th of August 2011, as official.
It was only obvious, that certain of the CDI shareholders and certain of their high authorized management officials, who were the main culprits, to the Stewards decision, control the monopoly of racetracks and off track betting facilities in Illinois (8 OTB) and 10 OTB in Louisiana, which gives them the power and authority over all betting pools in America.
All wagering public, horseman/tax payers etc, must pay attention to the mere fact, that there is, much evidence of owner/trainer Dennis Fisher 2006 lawsuit lodged against the likes of the holy than thou Calder/CDI and its associate companies, which has graduated to a Jury Trial from November 2009.
This lawsuit, was based upon similar facts of above of CDI in-house corruption acts, of certain of their CDI shareholders, who have been secretly fixing races, drug cartel ling from their private properties, to simply manipulate horseman, which has allowed for them CDI high authorities for decades, to secretly steal wagering public etc, hard-earned monies, from their private property racetracks.
This owner/trainer Dennis Fisher lawsuit, which is presently sitting within the 11th Judicial Circuit Court of Miami Dade waiting for a Jury Trial hearing, was for a myriad of reasons, meaning CDI/Calder officials foul play and in-house corruption acts that have been ongoing for decades.
These secret acts of the above high CDI authorities, also consisted of many other foul play acts which eventually led them to illegally, yet secretly, to attain personal financial wealth, from their private property racetracks for decades.
What makes this mind-boggling, it was done at the wagering public, horseman/tax payers/American – International simulcast audience expense.
It was only obvious, that something was amiss, on the 6th of August 2011, when the Saratoga NYRA Stewards, allowed the result of the 11th race to stand.
This was after all saw or noted, the severe interference, that the eventual winner Bound by Humor, who was obviously carrying the 9 CDI OTB live pick six tickets, caused to the third and second placed horses.
In other words, the above NYRA Stewards decision to allow Bound by Humor to stand as the official result, on the 6th of August 2011, had to be considered, once again as a well orchestrated in-house corruption act, to allow the high authorities of CDI/NYRA to attain financial wealth.
In actual fact, by any court of law, after reviewing the mere facts, that the NYRA Stewards, deliberately, yet intentionally, violated the Thoroughbred Horse Racing Straight Course rule, which allowed them the NYRA Stewards to declare the 11th race run at Saratoga, on the 6th of August 2011, as official, it would be regard by any court of law as a criminal offence.
This violation above, of the Thoroughbred Horse Racing Straight Course rule and regulation has to be classed, in every form, as a direct connive of the high authorities of NYRA/CDI for altering or preventing a true horse race result.
In other words, the Saratoga NYRA Stewards, are known as the trustworthy policeman of horse racing, who are supposed to protect in every way, the wagering public/tax payers monetary interest on a daily basis.
But NYRA Stewards, by refusing to disqualify Bound by Humor, for causing severe interference, undoubtedly altered the true result of the race run at Saratoga on the 6th of August 2011 in many ways.
What makes this even more interesting, that if the Stewards acted appropriately and disqualified Bound by Humor, it would have awarded the worthy wagering public, another chance at the massive carry over of the pick six pool.
Secondly, the Stewards unprofessional decision, of not disqualifying Bound by Honor, to the third place, obviously due to a vested interest reason, which undoubtedly, robbed the owners/trainers/jockeys and even the grooms, of the second and third placed horses, of their true Stake monies earned.
Thirdly, the NYRA Stewards compromised decision, of allowing Bound by Humor to stand, as the winner, affected the wagering public in many ways, which has to be regarded once again as a criminal offence, because the wagering public had bet on the second and third horses in ways of the perfecta box, or win and place bets on the second and third placed horses.
Once again on the 6th of August 2011 the three monkey theory manifested, See no CDI/NYRA evil, Hear no CDI/NYRA evil, nor speak of CDI/NYRA evil, as their pay roll Stewards, at the Saratoga Racetrack, over road their own inquiry to suit their superior demands.
