This went on for a minute or 2, then it was announced that there was no reason for disqualification. Thanks alot, Tampa Bay Downs...I obviously played the horse that ran 2nd (and the one that ran 4th, whose jockey claimed foul), but this did not smell right! And I'm not saying he should have come down, I just don't know because I wasn't given the opportunity to have a look.

That was strange...McBride's horse was in the WC and the other horse headed straight to get unsaddled and back to the barn...Guess they knew there was no infraction...considering how much time they took to take the 1 horse down in the 10th, and how glaring the infraction was there...you'd think they'd have shown a replay...Weird day all around...
