Does make me wonder though. Didn't cost me I had US Navy Flag who walked round . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

slam dunk 1,317 Report post Posted October 23, 2019 Wow!! Maclean placed a $100 bet in the Melbourne Cup. May i venture to say probably the least amount of any trainer in the Melbourne Cup. And hell he passed on "betting information" to someone. So no other trainer in the Melbourne Cup or other major race ever passes on information. There is a degree of desperation in these charges the idea being the more charges there are then the more chance one or two sticking.

Kingshill 233 Report post Posted October 23, 2019 Surely he won't be training publicly again? Even after his 4 year disqualification is over who would send him horses to train? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
