I wonder if he used them to attain his 4 for 79 record :bang: If so, they aren't working or they need new batteries. :lol: And he had a gun/firearm, I guess if the buzzer didn't work he could always shoot his competitors. He is a moron.

He's trying to darken his form before using them.

He is a moron. He probably makes them and sells. There is a market there at minor tracks You are right. He is a moron. He was lucky, things could have gone a lot worse for him.

A jockey once told me and the trainer "I wouldn't have won even if I had a gun" now I see where there is actually a jock who has a gun.

LMAO! :D

As much as I'm against buzzers, either horse racing needs to crack down on them hard, or they need to allow them. I doubt that a buzzer is more hurtful to a horse than a whip, so take away the uncertainty for bettors. If it's allowed they can inform the public of the buzzer. I would prefer huge suspensions for jockeys caught with a device. Minimum of a year.

Whoever said more buzzers than wins goes in the "post of the year" category.

This is typical racing, go after the people who don't win and leave the guys winning 89 percent alone.

He probably only had 4 of them the the Peta video came out and Stevens gave him his.
