"Really? Are you kidding?"

Only at Charles Town would that horse have been DQ'd. He didn't seem to bother anyone or cause anything -- how they determined him responsible for the little bit of chain reaction bumping just after the break is a mystery to me and pretty much everyone I talked to.

For those that don't know -- that horse finished 2nd and was about 10 lengths clear of the 3rd place finisher. He was DQ'd and placed 7th for some real phantom stuff. I wasn't involved at all betting that race.

I was DQ'd in a race at Charles Town for a real score earlier in the year -- I happened to be at PID. One of the tellers, Angel, still loves to bring it up and tell the story. Security was looking for a straight jacket to put me in.
