Plenty of times the gate opens and they just DON'T GO. It's called refusing. It has nothing to do with the assistant starter or mechanical failure. Those issues result in a refund, a horse that refuses or loses its rider or falls in the running doesn't generate a refund. It's like a horse getting a perfect break and the veering to the inside or outside. No refunds.
