removed incorrect statement

[edit]

I removed this incorrect statement from the article:

"In 1977 Adams was involved in a scandal in which there was suspicion that the horse he rode, "Lebon" to a four-lengths victory, for a payoff of 57-1, was really another, much better horse, named Cinzano."

Jockey Adams' so-called "involvement" was to ride the horse. He was never charged with anything but veterinarian Mark Gerard was convicted and given a prison sentence. St. Petersburg Evening Independent - June 12 1979 Stretchrunner (talk) 22:36, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
