Why don't you enlighten me? I mean, I've seen enough races to know that jockeys do have some control or where a horse goes.

would like to see the stews have a review board that is public..have a national oversite and training ..making a standard that all would follow in every situtation..yes there are many, but we have enough video of all these that its not un doable

Does the NFL not come to mind here? Besides gaining credibility, wouldn't explanations at the time the race is declared also be extremely beneficial for the fan that might not know all the rules and what the stewards are looking for? How many of us have listened to the "upon further review" and said "man, I didn't know that?" In an industry where credibility is always in question, anything it get do to enhance the credibility is an absolute must in my opinion.

take a 1000 pound animal running 38 mph and turn left and see where they go.

Thanks for the insight.

You ride a bike and no nothing about turning?

Do you ever think a horse that has been exerting
its muscles to the extreme might have difficulty taking
a clean turn? Do you know that turning requires accelerating
because the animal is changing directions? That requires
more effort. And if they are already tired what happens?
Little problem with inertia becomes a big problem when
large animals are tired.

Good God.
