![]() I have zero confidence in the stewards in NY these days. I honestly get the feeling they have no idea what they are looking at and every decision seems to exist in total isolation from every other call. And I say this as someone who has not been involved in a single particularly important ruling over the past year or so.
I don't even feel as though they know for sure which horse ( or horses ) were actually responsible for any perceived infractions and they certainly lack consistency in their rulings. However, the non-dq yesterday was probably the right call for a number of reasons. Most importantly they didn't really have the angle necessary to see either how the incident developed or if there was definitively a foul. Plus, considering they have pretty much condoned " drifting " ( except when they don't ) they had certainly done as much as told the riders they could do just what Coa was very possibility guilty of. |

![]() That horse was left hand whipped into the outside horses path, caused a severe check, and then the checked horse dead heated for second. How does that not cost that horse a spot? No doubt the winner has got to come down in that case. I wasnt involved either, but Im sure anyone who was couldnt have been very happy. They are brutal
