It's pathetic. And as I said, felonious.

GULFSTREAM: No regard for the bettors

The tenth race has been taken off the turf. The decision was made with the field in the paddock. That means anybody who bet late pick-3's, pick'4-s, daily doubles and the pick-6 are all stuck with their selections made for the grass. According to track management, the jockeys declined to ride the finale on the turf after returning from The Very One.

These situations are why we need a national commissioner and standardized rules.
