The whole purpose of allowing the farce of a race to go - was so that Gulfstream can stick it up Tampa Bay Downs ass. Through manuvering - Gulfstream created worthless races for both Dialed In and Uncle Mo to prevent them from running in the Tampa Derby. The result - some 16K claimer last out - comes within a neck of winning the Tampa Derby.

You really think Gulfstream cares that Uncle Mo won? Why? They wanted to pay out a minus show pool? They wanted to make 'The Timely Writer' an important prep race in the years to come?

Another question is, what does Pletcher and GP say to the owners of this horse. Hey we are going to cost you over a 100gs in cash so we can stick it to TB Downs and in the process we are going to let some cheap stand ins run your horse down in the process??
