[CSC]

This may be a crazy pick but I went for some value in Ready Racer currently at 16/1.

I love Terrain, so I'm glad he was put up, but unless this was justified, I would feel terrible. I watched the replay over and over - I still don't know where Terrain was.

Was this the right call?

Double Disqualification??? Are you kidding me? These bleepin stewards have done nothing all meet, now they make this decision. Absolutely OUTRAGEOUS to put up the horse that finished 3rd. JOKE!

What the F*CK were these guys looking at?!?!?!?!? This is the 2nd time in the last two trips to the track where I was UNJUSTLY DQ'd out of a nice score. Closing day at Saratoga and today in this race. I have watched the replay several times now looking for the supposed foul and if anything, the 10 hit the 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The 12 comes out a bit tiring, which forced the 10 into the 6 a bit, but even if the 6 didn't finish in front of the 10 it wouldn't have been anything. And how exactly was the 11 involved in any of this that warranted a DQ???

Are the stewards trying to make me quit this game?? I seriously am sick of this. And this wasn't some schmuck owner/trainer combo, it was Catalano/Calabrese, who butters the Arlington bread, and Pletcher/Winstar.

Really? I was there and was only shocked by the fact that the 6 and 10 were flashing on the board, and the 11 was not even being looked at for the first two-thirds of the 13 minute inquiry. I needed Advice to score for several tickets and knew he was coming down before they even hit the wire.

The 12 comes out only after the 11 barrels over in front of him, starting that outward chain reaction that also involved Terrain and even Jose Adan. Then Jose Adan comes back in over in front of Terrain just shortly before the wire.

Think the 6 coming down was more of a toss-up, but the 11 absolutely had to come down.

I actually think they got it right.
