Nothin' doin'!"
What he told the owner don't know.
ring of owners and jockeys was uncovered
by the Kentucky Jockey Club three or four
years ago after long inquiry.
A S far back as the days Of Ascot Park, when
was riding there in 1905. this ring was
operating. I remember one race that they
fixed" back there that didn't stay Tin the can"
where they thought it had been put. II was
supposed to be o boat ride that was all over
but the pay-oh, but 1t didn't quite turn out that
way.
I was supposed TO ride in the race. An owner
had engaged me to ride good horse. Another
owner who was in the ring had one entered IN
the same race. The two put their heads to-
gether, figured that the other horse would pay
the higher price and decided that he should
win. In order to make the price still better
was taken off and Walter Miller, who had more
of following at that time, was given the
mount. The horse that Miller was slated to
ride mad quite bit Of class, but he had always
been given MS 'tea'-tnaC IS ne ha0 always
been given a stimulant of some sort before Q
race. So the two owners decided that If this
horse was sent out "cold," If he wasn't given
any stimulant, he would never be able to win,
no matter how hard Miller might try.
And then the "sure thing turned out to be Q
''bum steer"-for Walter Miller gave his cold"
horse q masterful ride and ran away with the
race-stimulant or no stimulant The beans
were badly spilled that day.
Why didn't the owner ask Walter Miller to
pull his horse, not to let him win under any
conditions?
Well because no matter if an owner Is
crooked, he isn't going to tell an honest jockey
to do anything like that. He's too foxy for that.
owners don't tell their jockeys not to win. Il
just isn't done. I've ridden between 1000 and
5000 races in the last Is years and on only
one occasion was bluntly commanded to pull
horse.
OF course, I've gotten plenty of hints to give
him an easy ride" or mot to knock him about
in this race, since he's hardly ready" But
once, and only once, was I instructed not TO
win in so many words.
The owner met me just before the race, as
was going over to the saddling paddock, and
drew me aside. I thought he was going to tell
me how much he was going to bet for me; but
he quickly knocked the props from under that

two or three owners would put Their heads to-

the best chance-Seeing to It that none Of their
other horses gave that one any trouble. Such
