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 |
If Ass Hole stays wide in the stretch he wins and we aren't having this discussion. Going inside was about the 5th stupid thing he did in this race. Horrible ride. Go back to Suffolk.
