I'm willing to give them a few day but at the same time it seems like the attitude on here is that it wasn't a big deal. I think anytime something questionable happens in the sport on a major network it is a big deal since the last thing you want is people afraid to wager their money cause of the perception it is fixed. This is the sort of thing that everyone should be pushing to have addressed even if it is as simple as to say the jockey was talking out his ass. And for the record I wasn't cashing on that race either way so it's not like this is sour grapes.
