I'd love to have them come on and explain all the no-calls they make. Take for instance the 7th race at Hollywood Park on May 10th. I'd love to hear them explain how that little filly was gunna hold on without fouling the horse who was trying to go by her. There is way too much overlooking of herding. It's pretty hard to get by a horse that keeps forcing you to move to your right. Why did they overlook it when this horse came out and bumped this horse, and forced it to keep running to it's right (instead of being able to run straight forward.) When they let it go, it simply encourages others to float their horses out to take the path of those also trying to pass them. I didn't bet the race. I'm not bitter at the stewards over that race, but I want a horse with run to be able to run straight. I don't want to have to have my horse run to it's right( because a horse keeps coming out to keep it from going by.) Late in that race, the outside horse is having to worry about the little filly that keeps moving out. I have no idea why they think a horse isn't bothered by that. That horse is having to worry about the fact that horse keeps coming out, and that horse would have gone by late if it wasn't worried about the other one swerving over on it. We are talking 6 inches here, and I can't believe that they didn't think it cost the outside horse 6 inches.
