Weekend Beyers

[randallscott35]

Andy makes a point that needs to be made about jockeys getting hometown calls which screws up things in DQs consistently. On Belmont day Bravo should've come down in that turf sprint but Monmouth looked the other way. It's gross and it needs to stop...I realize they recently took him down in another race I believe. He needs days as he is careless. He doesn't deserve a Jersey discount.

They aren't hometown calls....at least in NY. They are different interpretations of rules.

I will never get why people always insinuate that stewards have some ulterior motives. You may disagree with them, they may be " wrong, " but that doesn't imply some sort of imbalance. They simply see things differently...right or wrong.
