First of all, if you DQ the 8, you have to DQ the 4 who DID THE EXACT SAME THING to the 10 (I think 10 who I believe checked when the 4 came in on him) on the rail to even try to get by the 8 up it when the 8 was there first. The 8 was simply better!
That is two very questionable DQ's that have cost me dearly in less than 24 hours! (Hollywood 4th last night).
It is hard enough to pick winners, even harder in the 7 to 9-1 range, without having Bull$*it DQ's!!

That sucks, sorry that cost you. I know the 8 was one of the more popular alternatives to the 4 who proved again today what a hanger he is, so there are probably quite a few people who are mad and feel like they were robbed. I would be steamed if that cost me 1K. You certainly get many chances in this game to beat bad favorites, but to actually find the right horse is very tough.
