Thanks for the reassurance. I hadn't seen that happen before, either live or on TV and I had to wonder. The colt had had a nice blow-out 4 days ago (a bullet :34 1/5) so he had a lot of backers. Should put Nachoordinaryguy on Stable watch - if he's been worked from the gate in the meantime, might want to put something on him, knowing what went down in this first race. And the odds might be better next out, too.
