How do you let two break through the gate like that.....dont the gate crew have a hold on them in there? I didnt like either of them in the race, so it doesnt effect me....

Horses can break through the gate on their own. If enough forced is used they will.

I understand that, but the crew usually has a hold on them right...

root is doesn't matter....And actually them being able to break through saves horses and people from serious injury. If it was a prison cell, it would be worse.

I get that part....I know they can and do break through, and I understand why. My entire question is usually I see the crew still holding on when they go through....not always, but most of the time.
