Drugs, your 1st photo shows how far she's floated out into the stretch. She's not that far off the rail on the turn. Victor is where he would be (or even wider) if she hadn't pushed out. He just refuses to be pushed out by the others. Therefore, Candy sandwich. He doesn't have to give them this ground. It's assumed he will, but he is race riding the chalk. So, he participates in the sandwich of TC. That is not a foul. He is just not giving the ground they want. Her being out that wide is a foul right there. If Joel had held his ground (like he should of) there would have been a big collision between Candy n' GD. Instead, he hopes Victor gives him ground. He didn't. It appears Victor came in, because he knows he is gunna have to counter the weight of Candy coming into him. He does everything he can to avoid giving ground to the horses who are floating out. It's race riding. Her floating Candy into Setsuko is a foul (not race riding.) It's too much, and they missed it.

At 1:53 of your video pan shot feed......How far is she from the rail? When Trevor says "Setsuko is running a huge race," These 3 horses have plenty of space between themselves.

From 1:53-1:55 She taps one time lefthanded, and comes out toward you on the pan. In those 2 seconds, she has come out a lot. See the distance on drugs 1st still? That is not the distance (from the rail) that she was at on 1:53 of the pan video. At the same time, Victor decides to not float out at all. If you want to say he came in slightly, then fine. Those 2 things sandwich TC. The nice separation they had at 1:53 is totally gone. She ate that separation up by coming out from 1:53-1:55 of the pan video. That is what caused the great majority of all this contact that follows. Anyone that thinks she was straight needs to look at 1:53-1:55 of that race video. It's very reckless. It's the root of the problem yesterday. What takes place from 1:55-1:59 is the result of her coming out from 1:53-1:55.

If anyone was watching HRTV, they got to see Gary Stevens try to backpedal away from what he said he would do (if he was a steward.) This turned into quite a monumental fail. If someone recorded it, please post a video. He started getting very lost. Like Stevie Wonder at a Klan meeting.
