about that 3 to 5 bursting through the gate

I think it is very harmful on multiple fronts. To the horse, to the bettors and potentially to the jockeys. I'm in favor of if you break through the gate, you are out. I've seen too many bad things, the least of which is horses running badly at short odds (Pink LLoyd). The worst is Barbaro.
