Did you have money on Maximum Security? It must have been somewhat sentimental after all the years you lived there!

He was bumping guys on the way home, no?

 

Oh no! It’s like the NBA? They should go more Like Ben Hurr. Get to the line, you win!

Looks like he cut off the guy on the outside then came back down and cut off the guy on the inside!

There's a lot of pissed off people out there right now.

 

None more than the guy who ripped up his 65:1 ticket at the wire!

Interesting given all the horse health and security conversation earlier here. That could have been horrific, and nearly was, when I watch it in slow motion. I’m not a horse race guy, but I’m glad everyone is OK.

I was just about to say, ‘That’s why you should NEVER tear up your betting stubs!’

Hate to see the refs determine the outcome, but it was a foul and quite possibly impacted Country House.

BS call in my opinion. Do you know how much bumping, rubbing and cutting off goes into every race?  Additionally, the winner was still 3 lengths back. Furthermore, when Maximum went outside he let all the inside horses gain position. 

 

BS call. To tell you the truth reminds me of a lot of Bills games. 

 

I would like to think i am a horse health advocate too. However, horse racing is inherently bad for horse health. Getting in front of a horse has no more risk than any other aspect of the whole race. 

 

Sloppy conditions... 20+field... giant peloton of horses....

That's just like holding in football. It could be called every play. I'm amazed they overturned the win. No skin off my back either way, but I'm shocked they made the call.
