he's not any different than the other high roster trainer's all over who control the condition books and make good trainer's like yourself look bad.

Licensed again, but suspended, training, maybe, but not as a trainer. Or something. Seems like a peach.

Florida is the worst. Trainers running the place like the wild, wild west.

Well, this is nice to see for a change. I guess once again we have the lone real journalistic source in racing and in particular, one of their best in Voss, to thank for actually asking questions and painting a clear picture rather than just disseminating glorified press releases. This is really one of the things that shouldn't be nearly so hard to rein in and take one (a really glaring, laughable, in-your-face one) of many strikes against the sport's credibility off the board.

instructed trainer Luis Ramirez to claim the filly Tiz Mariand off Vitali for Calabrese in a $15,000 claiming race. Tiz Mariand finished sixth as the heavy favorite, more than three dozen lengths behind the winner. According to documents Stone filed with the Florida Division of Pari-Mutuel Wagering, Vitali told Stone after the race that Tiz Mariand had a slab fracture in her knee, and later provided Stone with X-rays taken a few weeks earlier by veterinarian Dr. George Burch, showing a third carpal bone sagittal fracture.

Knowingly running a horse with a broken leg might not constitute a violation of Florida's rules concerning horse racing, but the state processed Stone's complaint as a possible case of animal cruelty.

Trouble in Florida

Marcus Vitali can no longer enter horses at Gulfstream or Tampa.
This now includes his surrogate conditioner, Allan Hunter.
