Now he’ll never get in the HOF.

He should be prosecuted and sent to prison, sentencing depending on the severity and his long he's been doing it.

Horse racing is one of the toughest sports to say if someone is not trying to win

**jjgold** · 02-01-22, 03:57 PM

What a crook
Phila Park corrupt

Watch odds LATE FLASHES

**Chi_archie** · 02-01-22, 04:06 PM

how much did he stand to win if the other horse won against him

and how much did he stand to win if the horse he rode won?

I gotta think he would have won way more with his % of the purse right?

My wife doesn't allow me to gamble on animals so I don't play the ponies but, isn't this Snachez dude riding on the favorite allot of the time, and isn't the jockey a large draw in terms of betting on a horse or not? Sounds to me like he was shaving off the top with riding the favorite in situations he thought the longer shot horse had a pretty good chance against him and maybe just maybe didn't perform at this best while doing the jockey thing. I hear the Jockey thing is a little bit of a black box art so who really knows when the jockey is sand bagging it.

A suspension is a joke, they will have to toss this dude out. He should be riding camels in the Baghdad invitational.

Sanchez Suspended, Gambling an Outlet for Depression

https://www.thoroughbreddailynews.com/sanchez-suspended-gambling-an-outlet-for-depression/

Jockey Mychel Sanchez, who has been suspended 60 days by the Pennsylvania Racing Commission for betting on horses other than the ones he rode, is not a cheat or a race-fixer, his attorney told the TDN Friday. Rather, said lawyer Alan Pincus, Sanchez was dealing with a serious case of depression and took to gambling

As if he's the only 1. NCAA kids play the other side every weekend.

**trytrytry** · 02-01-22, 06:12 PM

wasnt he just putting a bunch of random horses in pic 3s and stuff? sort of out of control number gambling action wagering. account totals pretty small at the ADW. not sure this is much to worry about, hes suspended from a bunch of tracks and will get treatment.

thought I saw he won like 37 bucks on one race and 27 bucks on another. Meanwhile he won a decent % of races he bet on

weird

Beyond the issue that he gambled against himself is a deeper, more disturbing element, which is that he gambled at all.

did they get this sentence backwards? why would it be disturbing if he bet on himself? sports would be much better and more exciting if pro coaches/athletes all had to bet their salaries each game on the moneyline for their team to win.

**jjgold** · 02-01-22, 08:56 PM

He was basically holding back his horses

Who else profited from this people he knew?

**gauchojake** · 02-01-22, 09:03 PM

I mean when a guy's nickname is dirty Sanchez that's a red flag.

**JIBBBY** · 02-01-22, 10:27 PM

What, horse races can be fixed? Who would have ever thought of that being possible?

Not only jockeys can fix a race.. Got juice?

**big joe 1212** · 02-01-22, 10:30 PM

All horse racing dirty. everyone corrupt. Horses drugged, trainers cheat, jockeys corrupt

but they cancel dog racing

It's like insider trading with stocks. Would be nice to get these kind of tips in advance indeed.

Used to know a minority stakes race owner.
He's told stories on the tricks trainers do.

For starters owners 'they take turns'
By that I mean the talks turn to 'who's turn to cash this week'
Not the big races, but the small time allowance races and claimers and such.

Another story I remember, if a good horseman was running bad and the stable fees were due, other owners will 'let' his horse cash in race to help pay the bills.

It happens.

Like I said I wasn't there so it's second hand news.
I wouldn't put it past them.

This is Monmouth Park we're talking about so those stories seem a little more real.
What do they say about Monmouth? "
That track is screwed on crooked"

I know you own, I wanted to talk to you about all that.
It does happen, right?

**stake1** · 02-03-22, 01:45 PM

Same with college referees. no doubt in my mind that some of those conference crews are betting the sides and totals, in games they are refereeing

**jjgold** · 02-03-22, 07:18 PM

give him a year

**hawkwind** · 02-03-22, 07:59 PM

Nothing. I saw no clear evidence that he road in a manner to cause his mount to lose.

**DrunkHorseplayer** · 02-03-22, 08:06 PM

Steroid monkeys like Baffert are a far bigger threat to the sport than this jockey.

**pavyracer** · 02-03-22, 08:30 PM

All gambling has some type of fix. A good gambler bets the fix.

**mcaulay777** · 02-04-22, 04:25 PM

I Asked a Pro Horseplayer in California, Why do i read everyday handle at us racetracks at a all-time high and nobody is at the Track.I was at Lone Star last july on a 85 degree day on a friday afternoon there may have been 100 people there he told my it is all Computer betting now he thinks it is at least 70% of the Handle.

**pavyracer** · 02-04-22, 04:28 PM

Horse racing is a dying sport. Millenials and younger don't care about it. When the baby boomers all die the racetracks will go under.
