Anybody watch the Yorkshire Oaks this morning? Gates open, Spencer starts kicking and shoving, Sariska stands there. Spencer keeps on shoving for 10 more seconds before he quits, turns and grimaces toward the gate crewmen (and probably lets loose a few choice Irish oaths). Sariska stands there.
They finally got her to walk out of the gate, after the race was nearly over. It was the strangest thing, because she wasn't acting flighty or antsy before the race; indeed, she looked calm and professional going down to the start. Unfortunately for the punters, she was considered a starter because her gate opened and there was no obstruction to keep her from running. She just chose not to race today.
