Default Scratches

Only 23 scratches today at Belmont NOT including the MTO. Something needs to be done about this because it is really hurting the sport. But what would I know.

Actually, there are 8 trainer scratches and 3 vet scratches. The other 12 are in the 2 off turf events.

Default scratches

A discussion for a different thread. Guess my issue is 2 scratches in both 5th and 6th stakes races. Old dog race guy and they would never allow a dog to scratch because there was another good dog in the race. An athlete doesn't sit out games because he doesn't want to face a good pitcher or a good defensive player. So horse racing is the only sport I know that allows this shi_.
