My point here was not the lawsuit, but rather the injury down the stretch that will undoubtedly happen. How do you think that would play during opening week at Saratoga? Do you think they would clamp down on the herding at that point?

I understand that your main point is not a lawsuit, but in New York the enforcement is not going to come from the courts. I agree that herding is way too prevalent in New York and the stewards have let riders, particularly Castellano, get away with it for way too long. The enforcement has to come from the stewards or someone is going to get hurt badly.
