IM STILL WAITING FOR Sam Houston Race Park Arabian Horse Association Arabianhorseracing Arabian Horse TimesArabian Jockey ClubDelaware Department of Agriculture (DDA)Arapahoe Park Race Track

To respond to any of our posts.

Who of you are brave enough to step forward and right a wrong? Will any of you start a conversation with those in charge to bring QMR back to race? Will any of you be the change in Arabian racing and stop the people with money, from running Arabian racing? WILL YOU PUSH TO GET THE POLITICS AND SHADY PRACTICES OUT OF ARABIAN RACING?

WHO WILL BE THE HERO?

08/31/2022

Here is a report I woke up to this morning. Another out of touch person thinking that it's OK just to ruin someone else's life and move on their merry way. Mark may as well had pulled the trigger on us as he destroyed everything we have worked for. Then he has the audacity to tell us to move on. I just don't get people.like this.

We received this letter from Mark Powell on our site and I thought it would be pertinent to share it and prove how uncaring and how out of touch this guy is --

"Lori get over it its almost been 4 years this is old news. the true fact is April owns the horse and the LLC. is only in her name. my name is not on their. stop lying to people saying iam on their. also it seems to me that your hubby would rather stay home hunt elk then go get job and its easy to sit blame mark Powell. on something that has happened 4 years ago. get over it ... life goes on....move on/// also if you would do research on why scoot has trouble getting on tracks it is his behavior what he did while he been on the track not giving details out , nothing to do with DNA on the 2 horses the Arabians world has learned and moved on from that . as spectator that iam . i do think that the Arabians world should give you guys another opportunity to race again also Lori if i decide, to watch race at race track will as public person to go to the races, i have that right....also i have friends many friends from the years i was in racing please don't tell my friends they cant talk to me that's wrong get over it move on its been 4 years.i have lots more to say but i will let this go i have moved on with my life, hope all the best that you scoot can find way to move on ,, bye"

Seriously? Move on??? We literally built this business from the ground up and have bred several wonderful horses that we now have no chance to prove in the race world. What? These horses are just dog food now? Do you not get that the whole reason we moved to this area was to train these horses to race and market them? Why are we in this position again? HELLO MARK!!!

That's great that you would say that we should get another chance at racing again, but at the same time, you're the one making it impossible and turning people against us. Don't pretend that you're sympathetic. If you were sympathetic, you would have been fighting for us like we are fighting now! I know you're loving every minute of flaunting what you've done in our faces and go along your merry way. There's a special place in Hell for people like you.

Apparently, you don't understand the immense breeding program that we started with Paddys Day, Munjiz, and other great sires with the idea that we could prove them out at the track. We have been trying to sell these horses in every way we can but now that we have a black shadow cast over us that you created, we can't sell anything! That said, for any vultures out there, we refuse to give them away because of their value! You think I can be here and care for an entire ranch while Scott goes to "find a job?" We can't afford help. Every dime goes in to purchasing hay.

We live in Silver City, Mark... there is nothing here except fast food and a Walmart!

And excuse me, but Scott can't even go watch a race if he wants to!!!! He is completely banned from any track or showing his face there. Why is it that you can??? Do you think that's fair? And why would you even care to go and watch. Why is it that you have a bloodstock website up selling So Big Is Better Breedings when you are banned from breeding any horses as deemed by AHA?

You also forget that due to your shenanigans, the only reason Scott would ever get into trouble is because he had an entire paparazzi following him, videoing and taking pictures. I witnessed it myself! If we were to fart we were sent to the steward's office while you sat back and laughed behind your hand. I even got sent to the steward's office and the stewards were even baffled at my charges! Don't think I don't know where the fuel of the fire is coming from. You forget the times that you would purposefully place us in situations where you knew an argument would ensue. You love drama... you feed off of it!

And hey... I can't stop people from associating with you. I'm just truthful and if someone asks me about you, I'm not gonna lie and say he's a great guy. I will say "Run!!! Run far!!!"

You are a disappointment, Mark. You always have been and always will be. If you can't handle the truth, butt out. Oh! Never mind. You're blocked! And please go back to school and learn how to spell! Or be smart enough to use spellcheck.

We would like to inform you of ILLEGAL activity, involving Arabian Racing at Sam Houston Race Park.
First there is a person who has been “Banned
For Life” in Arabian Horse Association. He is still racing under an LLC, and his Girlfriend is his front at tracks. I will attach documents showing this. His name is Mark Powell.

There is also a Ranch, QUARTER MOON RANCH, that is BARRED from racing at SHRP.
QMR has trained several TOP running Arabians.

Long Story short Mark Powell cross bred his Arabians to run. He asked his brother Scott Powell to assist in training. (Scott is known as the top trainer). Mark got caught through DNA testing of his horses. Scott had no knowledge of his brothers ILLEGAL activity. Documents Below clearing Scott.

Politics, Money, and envious breeders, owners, trainers…….Have gotten several tracks to not allow QMR TO RACE. There is no legal reason for it. QMR has lost everything, while his brother Mark continues to ILLEGALLY race. It is a well known fact , but others are afraid to speak up.

We are working tirelessly to get tracks to stop their ILLEGAL, allowance of “Banned for Life” Mark Powell to continue racing. In which he is pocketing money.
QMR: Scott and Lori Powell are cleared of any knowledge of Marks Cheating. YET, they can’t for NO LEGAL REASON.

PLEASE HELP US GET Justice for Quarter Moon Ranch.

The Delaware Park Stewards have suspended Mark Powell owner and trainer for life. He appeared telephonically represented by Gary Katz Attorney at Law in a hearing on July 26th 2019. The hearing was held in the matter finding him guilty of DTRC 10.2.2:
“No person shall at any time cause or permit the correct identity of a horse to be concealed or altered nor shall any person refuse to reveal the correct identity of a horse he owns, or which is in his care, to a Racing Official”
as well as DTRC Rule 18.3.1
“...either the Commission, the Stewards or the Licensee may bar or eject any person from Licensee’s grounds...who, by reason of his or her past or contemplated conduct or associations is, or would be, in any direct or indirect way detrimental to the continued maintenance and promotion of high standards for honesty, integrity and propriety in all...racing conducted in Delaware.”
As testimony was concluded and evidence was presented the Delaware Park Board of Stewards fined Mark Powell $2500.00 and suspended his Delaware Racing Commission occupational license and barred his participation for life. They found Mark Powell intentionally was running horses and concealing their identity of which weren’t the horses named.

There is no place for anything even remotely like this in horse racing and while we applaud the efforts of the stewards what is amazing to me is that there is much of this same type of thing going on at lower and mid-level tracks. This is a rarity at high level tracks and their practices must be examined so that the lower level tracks avoid these types of incidences and can learn from them. While I am happy that the purses were redistributed it’s the bettor that takes it in the shorts. Too bad the people that wagered on these races couldn’t recoup their losses as they were swindled out of their money.

ALLOWING A ”BANNED FOR LIFE” OWNER CONTINUE TO RACE, IS BEYOND ILLEGAL. NOT TO MENTION, THE FACT THAT IT IS WELL KNOWN MARK POWELL IS RACING UNDER AN LLC. USING HIS GIRLFRIEND APRIL LUND/LONDON AS HIS FRONT.

No one will speak up because their scared they’ll end up like QMR. They are all watching the politics and a few with extra cash, allow and or buy the illegal activity.

THE GAMING COMMISSION SHOULD ALSO TAKE NOTICE.

08/20/2022

REMEMBER WHEN? Remember when honest, talented trainers were able to race their horses. Before cheaters, and politics took over.
QMR LIVED ARABIAN RACING! They loved the competition, they loved watching each and every horse.
PLEASE HELP GET THEM BACK ON THE TRACK! Start the conversation, ask questions, and fight for Justice!

Powell sweeps Arabian stakes with Sand On Fire, Paddys Day

Chuck DybdalJul 05, 2015

Share
PLEASANTON, Calif. – Trainer Scott Powell won both ends of the Arabian stakes races Sunday at the Oak Tree at Pleasanton meet at the Alameda County Fair with the favorites Sand On Fire and Paddys Day.

Sand on Fire was eighth early but made a strong four-wide move on the turn and came flying through the lane to win the $39,370 H.H. Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak Ladies World Championship. She won the six-furlong race by three-quarters of a length over One Hot Chick in 1:21.42. My Vaz Is Hot ran third.

Ms Dixie had to be scratched after acting up in the gate. She was 2-5, and with her scratch, $76,000 out of $101,000 in wagers at that point had to be refunded.

Sand On Fire, who had trailed stablemate Ms Dixie in their past two meetings, earned $20,350 with her seventh win in 32 starts, lifting her career earnings to $124,657 for owner Lori Powell.

Paddys Day, winner of six of eight career starts, dueled early with Our Princess before pulling clear in the stretch to win the $55,194 Grade 3 Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Arabian Cup, the second leg of the Emerald Arabian Triple Crown.

He covered six furlongs in 1:18.43 in defeating Sand Victor by four lengths with Our Princess taking third. He was ridden by regular rider Kelsei Purcell.

Paddys Day, owned by Quarter Moon Ranch LLC, earned $29,240 to increase his lifetime total to $84,943.

"He's a perfect horse," said Powell. "We can take him back or go to the front. Nothing bothers him. I have no idea what his upside is, but he can run all day."

Riders in the Ladies World Championship Race were all females, representing 10 different countries. Sandee Martin of the U.S., the most accomplished of the jockeys, was aboard Sand On Fire.

"I knew we had a good match with the rider," said Powell. "We know [Sand On Fire] comes from off the pace, so I told the rider to just keep riding."

08/17/2022

WE ARE ASKING ALL ARABIAN BREEDERS TRAINERS, JOCKEYS AND WHO EVER ELSE THAT BELIEVES IN JUSTICE NOT JUST FOR QMR BUT ALSO FOR ARABIAN RACING, PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION. Remember he’s stealing your money now also!

PLEASE SHARE. It’s time for Arabian racing to make the right decision. Charge Mark Powell and get QMR JUSTICE

Read the impassioned letter that is with this petition, and sign. It’s time for Justice!

Should Mark Powell have received jail time for defrauding the public's betting interest?

NOW LOOK AT THIS DOCUMENT.
Mark Powell himself cleared QMR and Scott & Lori Powell of all wrong doing.

YET MARK POWELL IS STILL RACING. POSSIBLY TAKING MONIES THAT COULD HAVE BEEN YOURS.

WHILE QMR IS STILL BEING TURNED AWAY FROM THE TRACKS.

JUST OR INJUSTICE. I think this document answers that question

PLEASE SHARE SHARE SHARE

08/17/2022

I WOULD ASK YOU TO SHARE THIS WEBSITE WITH ALL YOU KNOW IN ARABIAN RACING.
THE SHEIKS LOVE QMR, SCOTT AND Lori Williams Powell, I THINK THEY WOULD BE INTERESTED IN THIS TRAVESTY.
PADDYS DAY WAS VERY POPULAR WITH THEM.

WE NEED TO STOP ALL THIS POLITICAL GARBAGE. STOP THESE OWNERS, TRAINERS, AND BREEDERS THAT HAVE ”CHIP ON THEIR SHOULDER”, BECAUSE QMR CONTINUED TO BEAT THEM, BE ALLOWED TO PUSH TO KEEP QMR OUT.

AND THEIR ALLOWING WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE MARK POWELL TO CONTINUE TO RACE “ ILLEGALLY”

SHARE WITH ANYONE YOU KNOW IN ARABIAN RACING! SHARE SHARE SHARE

08/16/2022

So lets look at these two documents. Scott Powell has been COMPLETELY CLEARED. Scott never knew of the scam his brother, Mark Powell, was embarking on. Scott Powell was asked by his brother to help in training. Due to Mark having no idea how to train.

Scott and Lori Powell haven't been able to race practically anywhere. It costs money to care for these horses, which due to this fiasco and injustice, they are scraping by.

Arabian Racing is allowing, and he is being allowed, a RECOGNIZED CHEATER, to continue racing.
YET, They are allowing, and they are allowing, THE TOP TRAINER IN ARABIAN RACING, to keep getting kicked out of tracks.

ITS COMPLETELY ILLEGAL, AND THEY STILL ALLOW IT.

Where are the Board of Directors, Where is the Arabian Horse Association? Where Is AJC?

PLEASE SHARE

08/16/2022

If this were true, Why is Susan Myer turning a blind eye to the very well known fact that Mark Powell is still racing? Politics?

Why hasn't Susan Myer not done anything to help QMR, get back on the tracks?

please share

08/16/2022

As you read through this article, keep in mind He is still racing. Just under an LLC, and with his girl friend April Lund/London running point.

Now let’s compare Scott Powell’s and Lori Williams Powell document’s. Who should be racing? QMR or THE CHEATER WHO CONTINUES TO CHEAT.

All the breeders, owners, trainers should be outraged!
