Cajun is saying that some people are redboarding the issue ... going back and saying that the gate breakthrough was connected to the ankle injury.

If the track vet and starter crew had spent more than 30 seconds ... say 60 seconds ... examining Barbaro ... maybe these nutcase redboarders would have less to say ... maybe.

The vet did a normal examination ... but Cajun is saying because of the high visibility of the situation ... maybe the exam could have been extra-normal ... just to vitiate post-race conspiracy theories.
