curious ruling by the stewards - Kee 5th

[Riot]

Oh, what the heck, I"ll pile on too. I had $25 WPS on the 10, and I agree it was a clearcut, easy call to DQ. I suspected it would happen as soon as 10 crossed the line (thought to myself, "geesh, won't win this one, either!" )

Nobody ever said there was bumping. The 10 clearly, repeatedly, came over in front of the other horse, causing that horse to have to alter it's path.

I don't know why it took so long, I suspect they were figuring out what they would have to do with the 9.

Ah, well, I disagree, FM <g> Just didn't see that on the head-on. I was worried about the 4 clipping heels twice with the 10, though, as the 10 came over.

That said, I didn't win a thing all day, either. Always 1 horse away. Weird. But a good (as in interesting) day of racing.

You need to watch the replay again, Scav. The 10 bumped the 4 like 3 times. I'm surprised it took them that long to take him down. I bet the 9 and was kind of pissed about the DH- I could've really lucked out.

I must be blind, I've watched that replay several times and I cannot see a single instance where they bumped.

You watch the head-on? They bumped at least once and the 10 came out on him 2 other times and may have made contact.

Yes, I use Xpressbet and Youbet - usually I place the bets as they start to go into the gates. When I said "always 1 horse away", I was referring to my poor exact and trifecta choices this day
