At dinner tonight the topic of Allumeuse came up. She was the filly who was DQ'ed at SAR about 20 years ago in a complete error. She was literally no place near the incident and stewards lost their jobs over it.
That was the first thing I thought of last night when that filly came down.

Was the question ever posed to the stewards as to what their decision to take the horse down was based on?

I watched this race on Calracing at first and thought it seemed ridiculous.
I then watched it on the NJbets site and got the steward views and thought that while it was still a bad DQ, there at least was a modicum of justification for it.

Their reasoning happened at the 3/8ths pole. She 'might' have drifted in about an eighth of an inch or so, which caused the horse on her immediate inside to drift in a bit more and that caused the rail horse to take up violently.

Stormy but Valid's DQ at SA a number of years ago remains the lamest DQ I've seen.

Sign in and then go to the video screen. There should be an option for race replays in the upper right hand corner. Put in the race info and you should see the race. But you do have to be a member.
