NY Stewards must of taken a page from Calif Stewards rules.... First few jumps out of the gate have no bearing or incident in the race.... anything is allowed.
At Del Mar recently, the 4 horse turned left out of the gate and right in front of the 3 and the 2..... needless to say both of the horses cut off ( and the 3 was hit) finished far back. The 4 straighten out,,, raced on and finished second.
NO DQ after the INQUIRY .. reason given ...
First few jumps out of the gate have no bearing or incident in the race....
Could not believe what I was hearing.
Lost my exacta wager because of no action taken.
