That said it's a question of scale.

If he isn't there? Some of these...



... a small but very vocal group of protesters, a bit of coverage.

If he is there though?

Whoa it has the potential to get very ugly very quickly and his mere presence will show anyone who cares to pay attention that the sport, as a whole, does NOTHING when confronted with issues such as this.

Part of racings problem has been overreacting (synthetic tracks are a great example of this) anytime we start to get some bad press.

Wanting someone to not show up for work on Derby Day because of that tape screams of overreaction to me.
