There needs to be something done about the BS scratches that go on every day. "We didn't like the post position" is an excuse that really, really pisses me off, and I am glad that something is being done about it, since it is way too easy to claim a medical reason for a scratch and then run them back two days later.
Now, if they can only do something to change the way that trainers can scratch without reason until the field is down to 8. Sorry if you don't like the competition that you are facing, but if you enter a horse into a race, you should race them.
Just a small step to help the bettors, which is at least something...
