Way too much floating out being allowed at that dirt apron area.If the jocks on the leaders were given days for their horses floating out like that,you would see some much more fair racing.With those fences up,it is like water being forced into a smaller pipe.They go from having plenty of room to having to enter a small entrance that is actually to their right.If the leaders kept running straight,they run run into plastic fence,and then fall.So,they don't go just a little right(to them.) They do like they did in the 5th race yesterday(they float out 3 or 4 paths,and stop the momentum of other horses..like the 3 horse yesterday.)Now,the A Holes will say "don't play it." Well,here is the thing.Any ****** can figure out that the next 2 races have 2 extreme chalks,and the last was somewhat open.They put a hill course turf sprint (with rails out to f the race up) to start the p4.Fans don't choose the races in the p4.The late p3 only paid $87.You have no choice but to try to hit that p4.
