Gets DQ'd - pays $16.00 to place - the horse who got put up took no money and I ended up losing every ticket. Didn't even have something on it to place.
I went on a tour of the entire building complaining about it and showing my tickets. Even went over to the HPBA office and back to the barns to get all the sympathy I could.

That was the worst beat I've taken in a while. . . I had the exacta as a saver because I think the trainer of the eventual winner had good stats, but had everything weighted the other way and a big win bet. They're both running back in the stake on Saturday. The favorite from that race, who was bet off the board despite being trained by weak FTS trainer Bryan Lynch, is entered in a MSW a few races earlier.
