Horse race fixing
9 years 10 months ago - 9 years 10 months ago
This is the video showing some of the most blatant crooked race riding that I have ever seen! 3 horses in a 6 horse race, are pulled out to the back of the field, but very far back. One horse is raced 5 wide with NO horses in his inside. The other 2 are raced purposely into the inside rail, on a few occasions. Then one of those on the rail goes back to the 3rd horse that is racing wide, crosses his path, goes even wider, *throws* his whip down... and if that is not enough, that same jockey suddenly "loses" an iron with 2 furlongs to go! The horse with the blue arrow has the worst jockey. If I didn't know this was real and very serious, I would think that it's a candid camera spoof. It really is unbelievable

Thinking of writing a book, you reckon any of this happens?
Horses returning from rests unfit to race
Horses entered over the wrong distances
Horses being set up for the next time
Horses not wanting to run too close to better horses in pinacles etc
Horses running injured
Horses running injured for trainers conning their owners
Horses still running that are shite
Jockeys riding with lack of confidence
Jockeys riding for presents
Jockeys riding under orders
Jockeys talk to each other
Jockeys gamble
Jockeys settling gambling debts
Rich owners supplying JUICE
Skint or greedy owners sending horses to trainers on deals

The Guinness Book Of Records once labelled Bloemfomtein racecourse as the most crooked in the world.

I am sure trainers like the late Peter Miller, Bertie van der Merwe, Neville Newton, uncle George Scott, Kevin Coetzee and a few other trainers will disagree with that

south African racing must be the cleanest in the world where we have around 4000 races a year every horse gets given every opportunity to achieve its best position and is highlighted by the fact that we never hear of a jockey ever getting a suspension or life ..kudos to the nhra

In the 90's they had the a series on SABC called the "Big Time". In one of the episodes they decided to crook a race in one of their get rich scheme by having a "ringer" in the race and the racecourse chosen was Bloemfontien. I dont know if they actually shot the pre race scenes at Bloemfontein though.
