Interesting claim of foul in Belmont 1st as trainer of the 2 makes the claim against the 1 for wiping out the 2 out of the gate. The stewards disallow the claim affirming that you can do anything out of the gate, wipe out any chance an opponent has in the race with impunity.

You are right point. I don't recall ever seeing a DQ for something that happend at the gate.

I have only seen it called when multiple horses are pinballed. If it's two horses involved nothing is usually done.

hey Coach. I joined you in the churchill early 4

1)1,2
2)2,4,5,6
3)1,3,4,5
4)1,3,4,5

It is ridiculous and I feel bad for Signore whose horse lost any chance after the 1 wiped him out by turning out into the 2. I think Signore gets fined for the disallowed claim (not positive) which he had no shot of the stewards sustaining as they never take action on it. I find it strange that you can mug someone out of the gate but the rules are different for the rest of the race.

Hooray for overbet chalk desperately holding on at the wire. What fun.

It seems to happen at a much higher rate these days. Very mediocre overbet chalk barely winning. It's real frustrating.

Bel 3

Second guessing with another look at this race and the board with the 7 cold on the board and the 1 at a better price than I expected. Also regretting not putting the 6 on the ticket who may have bled last out explainub why she stopped last out.

I hope this pick 4 doesn't Belmont me at Churchill.

No offense guys but that track and the putovers are out of control.

F*** me, I knew this was a s*** field and thought about hitting the all button. Should have. :wf

Honestly Coach that field was a bunch of mules and any firster who could jog figured to have a big shot. I just didn't know who Desmond Farrell was or whether the horse could run. The 1 month gap in training before the last work bothered me but I should have hit the all button in the pk4. May have left money on the table there and I should know better.

I'm heading out, may be back later..
