Spa Day 6 Play Along

[pointman]

The 8 has to come down, completely eliminated the 4 on the turn.

[pointman]

That has to be the biggest joke I have seen yet. Absolutely criminal.

Of course they can't DQ the poster girl. What else does the 8 have to do to come down?

There is absolutely no justification for leaving that horse up. The stewards at Saratoga are an absolute joke. Anyone who bet the 4 (and my bet was not involved in this) has to be furious. That is flat out larceny.

[Pants II]

It will eventually get to the point where we all die and no one is left to take this abuse.

Yes the 8 interfered and the disqualification should have happened.

But we're talking about a sport that absolutely refuses to have any accountability from top to bottom.

The executives, with their astounding incompetence, have allowed the super trainers to completely take over and dictate the product.

Take him down? You have to deal with super trainer threatening to move his horses elsewhere.

Gambler doesn't even come into the equation...but we will someday...when all that's left is a bunch of pushover execs and bully redneck trainers with no ethics.

mixed emotions for me Nick...i benefited from the non-call .

Rosie was having all kinds of problems with the 8 out of the gate, looks like when she took a look back going in the turn, the four was up on her and the 8 wanted to keep going straight

I had nothing on the race and that was criminal. The stewards have already left two up this meet that had to come down and we are only in day 6.

I am sorry Billy, that was flat out criminal. The 8 was erratic from beginning to finish and there were three separate points of the race where I could argue a DQ.

The most obvious which was a no brainer was the 8 taking the 4 way out on the first turn, that is an automatic DQ. The 8 was not trying to go straight, clearly beared out and took the 4 with him.

The 8 also eliminated the 6 and 5 out of the gate. Then in the stretch, Rosie took the 8 out to intimidate the 1 from getting to the wire.

That was larceny. These stewards have made some really questionable calls on no brainer decisions. It affects the integrity of the game.

Rosie also deserves days for that ride.
