Last November 21 people, including two assistant trainers and four HK Jockey Club stable staff were arrested in Operation Iron Triangle for “illegal betting activity within the Hong Kong horse racing sector” . . . and sadly, the list of trainers with multiple and serious drug violations is a long one.

The Tampa Bay Derby should be an interesting race w/the addition of Chance It.
I've seen some numbers showing he wins the race, but considering he has never shipped, has never gone two turns and has never raced over the surface (post position still uncertain), I think Chance It may have had a better chance for Derby points had he run in the Fountain of Youth.
I’ve been working w/some Kentucky Derby numbers today and I show Sole Volante ranked in the top three in all categories except one, where he is ranked fourth. Overall, I’ve got
Sole Volante # 1, Tiz the Law # 2, Silver Prospector # 3. 
I think Sole Volante wins the Tampa Bay and come this time next week we'll see Biancone’s two colts atop the Derby Leaderboard.
