The amount of $$$ that DQ cost me was substantial.....I am glad the opinion I had is sane as I thought perhaps it was my vested interest in that outcome that was swaying my thoughts.

I had Inordinate in a wager BUT i agree with the DQ. That number 1 was not going to win but it definetley cost him a placing for 3 or 4th losing out by a head. He was pushed wide and that was probably the difference between coming in 4th and coming in 5th.

Had to be awkward for Chad Brown and his two sets of owners in the winner's circle, as they awaited the decision.

Rare that agreement on a DQ be so uniform. Everyone at track and elsewhere disgusted.

The top 5 finishers were separated by less than a length. He certainly wasn't going to win. It is pretty precise to say that it cost him a placing.
Meanwhile Star Hill gets herded off the screen of the head on replay in the 7th (literally) and they don't even peek at it. Just seemed very innocuous in a race where they all seemed bunched.

I also noted that sometimes on these big days it takes races several minutes to go "official" and as I waited for the Inquiry to go up...Bang! "official". Horses still galloping out.  That animal deserves better and will get it one of these days.

A $60k purse pays for a year's worth of expenses, and puts your horse in a profitable position for the rest if the year. Obviously, Chad had Inordinate torqued for that race and they found a perfect spot, with Javy on board. These types of opportunities are not abundant. Hope they can find another one soon.

It's not your fault, as it's actually a fair point, but it made me laugh imagining those actual separate owners ( neither were there ) being in the Winner's Circle together.
