Shows How Wagering Public is Held in Contempt
Unless there are mitigating circumstances we are unaware of, this penalty of $500 and 9 days shows the contempt the sport has for its gamblers.
Back in 2009 Peter Wrenn got a 30 day suspension for lack of effort in Indiana. In this case Davis is a relatively successful driver there. What does a $500 fine or 9 day suspension mean to him? Golf. Meanwhile, those who wagered on the horse just get to feel cheated.
