According to New York Racing Association steward Brook Hawkins, Rodriguez-Castro hit Drafted 10 times with the whip, four more strikes than are allowed under rules put in place by the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority [HISA]. Had Rodriguez-Castro hit Drafted seven to nine times - one to three more strikes than allowed - he would have received a one-day suspension, a $250 fine and there would have been no loss of purse.

So because he hit Drafted 10 times and not 9 the owners lose out on $26,000. Come on. What is happening to this sport?
