Default Poor job of loading GS Race 9

The starter had to walk from his position to out in front of the gate and back, and then the 3 horse reared up and was scratched. They looked like the did not have another starter assistants.

I didn't watch the race but, on the other hand, apparently:

1) they had the gate there ON TIME

2) they were able to get the gate out of the way before the horses hit the stretch


So, they're improving ..............

Maybe they even were able to time the race.

You forgot to include that they got it in the right spot prior to the horses loading.
