It wouldn't be the first time a horse has been barred from racing to protect the gamblers, but I'm sure you know that already.
Where do you draw the line of what the public needs protection from? So he breaks slow and doesn't always get there. But he did manage to win a graded race recently.

Shall we also protect bettors by barring high speed types who almost always quit at the 1/8 pole but occasionally manage to win?
