dmr race 7 friday night

[Cannon Shell]

This was a terrible, terrible call. It is impossible to know what affect gate interference has therefore in a case such as this the horse wiping out the others should be taken down and placed behind all the horses he interfered with. Sky Beauty was DQ'ed for wiping out a long priced Suffolk shipper in the Spinaway and while it was painful, the call the NYRA stewards made that day was the correct one. The idea that fouls early in the race arent as "impactful" as ones later in the race is immaterial and wrong. While a certain amount of jostling is allowed out of the gate especially in 2 yo races, this went far beyond that
