He then told us it was a no contest, but NEVER said why. The camera NEVER showed what was going on with Calvin Borel either, they just cut to a still shot of nothing.

So he certainly told us quickly it was being called a no-contest race by the stewards, and then explained how the wagers would be handled. BUT my problem was we were never told or shown why.

Did I miss that?
