Carnera also blew the break and was forced to chase inside, never easy, in an honest pace. How did the other speed do?

I needed the winner to come down, and in fairness to bettors he shouldn't have, but I have also been taken down for much worse. Not to even have an inquiry seems a bit odd to say the least.

Perhaps the Stewards have finally had enough of Durkin's histrionics. His playing Steward from the announcers booth is a disservice to EVERYONE involved in the game and he really should tone that particular part of his game down. The simple fact is that you can't ALWAYS tell what definitely went on from his vantage point and I have seen more than a few races where he screamed the proverbial fire in a crowded theater only to see the head on and realize there was no foul whatsoever.
