Default Hol stewards

No clue how they could keep that 6 up in the last race. He drifts out and bumps the 12 off his stride about 10 yards from the wire and wins the head bob because of it.

Dude who had the $400k+ Pick 6 must've offered the stewards half if they kept the 6 up.

The Hollywood stewards have made some odd decisions over the last couple of meetings. Like the DQ of Bob and John last fall. And some non-DQs as well.

12 was going by.The only reason it didn't go by was the contact caused by the 6.I have to say that I have noticed Espinosa gets the short end of the stick with the stewards.I am convinced of that.I don't know why that is,but it is a definite pattern of well over a year's length of time.The inside horse was small.They may have thought the smaller horse didn't bother a large horse that much,but they are wrong.That call was wrong.The Belmont stewards had a very bad no call this week in a maiden race early on in a card.A horse who ran 3rd was cost a placing of 1st or 2nd,but they simply blew the call.
