Done till Spa. F horse racing

[NoLuvForPletch]

The point of the Bayern comparison is simply that the rules are applied subjectively. And clearly the horse racing world is okay with that. BTW says it himself that gate infractions are rarely if ever adjudicated. But why exactly is that "okay"? If Bayern wipes out 3 horses by drifting in out of the gate and Max wipes out 3 horses by drifting out with a quarter mile left to run in the Kentucky Derby, why couldn't the stews subjectively decide to leave him up in this instance in determining that the 20 couldnt win if they went around again and the 1 was partially responsible for climbing up on the 7 and bulling his way through before the 7 drifted out anyhow? My greatest surprise is simply how strongly those that feel he should have come down are expressing their thoughts while not acknowledging there do remain unanswered questions.
