From the NYRA stewards corner:
"RACE 5:Steward’s inquiry and jockey’s objection into the running of race 5.
The # 7 Hook and Lateral ( Taylor Hole) claims foul against # 4 Digital Joe ( Samuel Camacho Jr.) for alleged interference at the 3/8th pole and also thru the last 1/16th of the stretch. At the 3/8th the # 7 takes up slightly due to mild pressure from the # 4 but has plenty of time to regroup, and through the last 1/16th in the stretch the # 4 drifts in on the # 7 tightening up on him. The # 7 never stops riding and is beaten by a head. After reviewing the video and in the opinion of the Stewards, this did not alter the outcome and the race is Official as is."
What a croc of **** this is, what race were these Steward's watching? The 4 drifted into the 7's path clearly forcing the 7 to go inside instead of outside and when the 7 does so, the 4 herds the 7 forcing the 7 to cut off the 1 and clearly preventing the 7 from going by the 4. The conclusion that it did not affect the outcome of the race is outrageous.
I wonder if the stewards come to the same result if Dominguez is riding the 7 instead of Taylor Hole
