I wish him the best of luck. Hope they take him in and when he does get in, he can clarify his statements a bit more.

“I'm a horseman and I think races should be won by the better horseman, not something else"

What do you think he means by these remarks? Is he some sort of conspiracy fanatic?

I hope he doesn't post on PA under some assumed name. The people in the know here will set him straight and blast him to smitherines for even thinking such outlandish and WILD thoughts.

They'll tell him he's a loser and making crap up.

HK trainers must tell the public there intend before the race 85% of US trainers wouldnt be able to train in HK for that reason alone

Isn't it expected that if a speed horse will be taken off the pace there, that they announce it before the race? Or am I thinking of somewhere else?

Also, don't they question a trainer if a longshot wins there and shows marked improvement? Or is that again, somewhere else?

That is definitely something that should be asked if it happens. It's a shame more questions are not asked here in the states AND if it does happen, why doesn't the public always know about it?

I sincerely doubt he was talking about the Ortiz brothers, as you always do. Care to reply with another smart ass remark?

Dumb and dumber (bello & EMD4ME) are going to try and paint me as some naive fool. But the big point they are ignoring is that in a recent thread, I wasn't talking about cheating trainers. I was directly addressing EMD's and some others CONSTANT assault on jockeys and how they are essentially FIXING every other race (especially the ones EMD loses).

Try and keep it on topic if you're going to come at me with smart ass replies.

I wasn't talking about the Ortiz brothers either. I was referring to the David Flores incident.

Wait just a second boss. I want to be Dumb, not dumber please.... I like Jim Carrey.

For the record. I don't complain about races I lose. I complain about races I win as well.

We all know you are super sharp. Mean that sincerely. Never crossed my mind that you are naive. We all know you need to CYA. I respect that.

While I appreciate the compliment, I am probably one of the least sharpest handicappers here compared to some of you. And I include you in that vast section of players here who are better than me.

With that said, I still think you're nutty.

Here is the link to the Hong Kong paper on Dale Romans:

It looks as he is not alone in wanting to come to Hong Kong, Peter Moody in Australia is contemplating it too:
