new video of derby DQ
Puts the onus on WOW , curiously does not show the headon shot though
https://www.yahoo.com/news/maximum-s...043736761.html PS - watch the replay of gulfstreams race 11 of sunday 5/12/19 DQ of the 3 who won and was taken down and the 7 put up a similar take down. |
Before all of this I actually had some respect for the West’s, who have put a lot of money into the game. I’m sure they could care less what I think, but this is embarrassing at this point.
I’ve always thought highly of Luis Saez as a rider. I’m guessing this is not his doing, but it makes him look foolish as well. The video doesn’t make lawyers look good either. |
Just as I said all along. gafflione caused it . He hit Maximum Security from behind after running up his heels trying to get to a hole that wasn’t there. It was a Paco Lopez I’ll make a hole if there isn’t one move. He never should have come down.
|
Well I am glad to know I am not alone in my opinion. Jodi mcDonald on FAN went off on a rant saying the same thing too. WOW ran up his ass.

I have to admit I’m kind of surprised people actually watch all of the videos of the Derby and come away from watching it thinking MS was fouled. I’m not trying to offend anyone but that’s crazy.

All one has to do to verify that WOW did or did not foul MS from behind prior to the latter veering out is to watch another angle(s) at the same point in time (you know, like the stewards are supposed to). But I guess since no one has yet to sync 2 complementary angles together side-by-side, lazy people will continue to buy into the headlines of "indisputable evidence". |
This tape shows WOW caused the problems..period the end

Insult, meet Injury
https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-rac...rby-infraction What an absolute travesty. What are the chances of someone gets 15 days out of an obscure infraction that the stewards didn't even see? |

So Gafflione had nothing to do with it ? It was all Saez ? :zz:

So he can't ride at Churchill?

I finally watched the video. Freeze-framing at specific points on the turn to show that War of Will or Country House moves lanes doesn’t really prove anything. Not a bad attempt but I’m not sure it shows that the stewards were incorrect.
|
I've watched it from 3 different angles: Grandstand side, infield side, head-on. I wonder if there is an overhead shot? Seems like that might reveal whether the fault is Gafflione's or not?
|
Even though the horse was rightly DQ’d I don’t think Saez should be suspended. Some of the hyperbole in this thread is humorous though.
|
The thought that Gaffalione is at fault is mind boggling to me. Anyone thinking that either bet MS or is overdue for an eye exam.
|
Where did Gafflione ever have room to make that move ? If he stays put, he might have won. He came out where there was not room. Is he not up Saez’ Ass while max security is still in the 2 path ?
