[quote=the_fat_man]As usual, many here are having reading comprehension issues.

It's not about making the race a no contest. This was clearly justified, as no race should be more important than the safety of a jockey.

It's about the 10 minute delay BEFORE the race, when they, apparently, didn't have the starting gate in place (or, perhaps they needed to switch gates, or whatever --- which still means they didn't check the gate beforehand.)

It's about that they're just flat out UNPREPARED for racing.QUOTE]
no, you have a point about this part. but, ny has the same problems at the gate. maybe its a lack of training. the thing i don't understand is the people crying its a fix or some crap like that. the track loses a fortune and tickets are refunded. wheres the "fix" in that. i hope the guy that stormed out ,comes back and keeps betting because clearly he is an idiot.
