Scandals at the Track Gridiron Gravesend Riding Alleges Second Money
The Gravesend race scene is lampooned as a second money scheme. Jockeys Turner, Spencer and others ride with “waiting orders” to place bets on second, not first, with Imp and Gulden figures under question. The Tremont Stakes sees Blues win and Tommy Atkins falter. Odom and Holstein receive critique for weak rides while Maher secures multiple victories among contentious performances.
