then why didnt i ever hear of that? or anybody else i know here of that? because i know 100s of people who have spent thier entire life working on the backstretch of racetracks and not once i have i ever heard of some horse who everybody on the backside knows is going to win a certain race. and if that was the case those horses would never be over 1to9

Think about this: If it were TRUE, all of the backside would be at home watching HRTV on their 52-inch big screen out of their collective La-Z-Boy recliners on race days, instead of living in stalls, dormitories and the back of trucks, no??? Or even better yet, they'd get to return home to their native countries and live like Kings everafter, no????

Let's just say that Lincoln Race Course has nothing to do with honest Abe.
