Default Sunday Break & Irony

Steve was talking about how generous NY is when it comes to declaring horses non-starters, "and it was the favorite". It was ironic that the very next topic he brings up the fact that Sunday Break had sired a horse that was racing tomorrow.

Sunday Break was a favorite that fowled a horse or was it the field? and because he was a favorite they did nothing.

They seem convinced that looking the other way when a favorite is involved was good for racing. That more people would be happy.

And people think I am crazy to think that odds influence the stewards decisions.

I would have called in and raised that question but gee not taking any calls.
