Belmont 9th 6/23
 

I have been unable to see the head on of this race. Can anyone who has seen it tell me if Howdyamissthisone (#8) was bumped any at all by the winner. The angle I saw showed Coa hitting Elder Skatesman (#1) right handed and it seemed the horse came in and made contact.

I had a win wager on the 8 and thought it was strange there was no inquiry or objection. Was it just my imagination or did it look different from the head on replay?

Looks as if the winner cut off the 6 a bit midstretch. Though, the 10 was coming out a bit under lefty whip at the time, as well, and the 6 just wasn't aggressive enough. The 8 and 1 bumped a few times in the lane late but neither gained an advantage nor lost a clear path to the wire as a result of it.

it was close kev..he ran well enough to win...
