You weren't the only one my friend. It's too bad that the stewards are never held accountable for their actions. In other sports if the referees make a bad call they are reprimanded. Not in horse racing though. They give these idiots free reign. Must be nice to be able to do a poor job and not have to worry about it.

Stewards all over the country make bad calls, but So. California stewards are unequivocally THE WORST. I no longer bet on SA/HOL/DMR/FPX, mainly because of the bullshit I've been forced to eat from those stewards.

I couldnt agree more. They are by far the most inconsistent out there. They dont take down Ingrid the Gambler yesterday who obviously smacked into Rockella....but they take down Conveyor's Angel last year even though the horse didnt touch another horse or effect the outcome. These guys are either the most incompetent stewards out there, or the most corrupt. I cant remember such an obvious bad call at any other track out there.


Like you, I am done betting out there.
