NYRA stews threw a horse out for herding a horse who had momentum to go by.
This is the 35,459th time this has happened since late 2002 and third time it's been adjudicated like this.

Favorite meet by far. I've bet it each year since 2009 to show support for their low takeout and customer appreciation.
This year, because they hiked takeout sticking their customers in the eye, $0 for me.

My racing pet peeve has been the industry giving out year end awards to folks who were cheating like crazy. It's a tough position to be in, but (esp in harness racing) when you're handing out the hardware to 45% off claim fly by nighters, you should be smarter than that.

I find it quite nostalgic when a racetrack closes. In other sports the stadium or arena goes, but we know it’s replaced with another newer one. Tracks, they just go.

Sorry to be blunt.
Kentucky Downs' Ted Nicholson might be the most obtuse person in all of horse racing. If you compare the price of a bet to the price of french fries, it should immediately disqualify you from having anything to do with wagering.
