Show me a race where a horse blew the turn by 3 paths and stopped three horses cold on the first turn but wasnt disqualified from a placing
There's always jostlingly and bumping, that's not what happened. Suddenly and sharply moving 2-3 paths and stopping competitors in their tracks is a foul.

Yes, I'm sure the stewards are conspiring with Jon Court as we speak to make sure they are all on the same page.

Can MS backers please quit pretending they had the best horse and rightful winner of this race?
You had the absolute 100% perfect trip,............... until you didn't!!!!!!

Congratulations on your assessment. Unfortunately that doesn't change the fact that MS obvious foul cost 3 horses multiple placings.
These rules exist for reasons and one of the main ones to protect jockeys and horses from falls that would damage the sport.
100% correct decision

No.. Long Range Toddy who had some momentum was stopped because of this incident. MS was put behind LRT.
The rulings make perfect sense.

I didn't notice it live either. I was watching my horses. That's their job though, they blew it not calling for the objection. But they got it right in the end.
The video replay evidence showed a foul.

Who filed the claim is irrelevant to me.
When you blow the turn by 3 lanes and nearly bring down multiple horses on your outside who have momentum, it's a foul.
The stewards should have called for an inquiry, they must have missed it live. Gaffalione had an obligation to his connections to file an objection. It's a bad mark on him because his horse was just stopped after it was

Sorry, but that was one of the more obvious DQs I've seen this year. It shouldn't have taken two minutes. It was a miracle there wasn't a wipeout.

Embarrassed himself by stating the truth?
That's a 45 second DQ in every other race you'll watch this year. That's probably the 3rd or 4th most obvious DQ I've seen this year so far.
Comical that any objective person would think otherwise.

Give me both of them. Forward moving lines, lightly raced, 6 weeks off, training like rock stars.
B tier in exotics will include WoW, BMS, Imp, GW, Tac and maybe another C tier will have a few price contenders such as House, Tax, WWW
Wheeling the Taps in all the triple spots. I think Imp is most likely winner, but Derby only comes once a year, not going to waste it chasing peanuts. If

I REALLY want to like this horse because it looks like he's ready to fire. Can a fan of his convince me that he's going to handle mud getting kicked in his face after Max Security or Vekoma come down on top of him? Because all signs point to no in my eyes.

You're missing nothing. There's tons of potential keys on big price horses sitting with close figures or monster patterns. Tax is one of them.
I think the tote board is getting lit up tomorrow.

Most likely winner: Bellafina. Price not quite there, I have her race two back shaded a bit faster. Probably 3-1 or 7/2 would be ideal.
My play: Jaywalk
Not an ideal sheets play as she's failed to get back to her top as 3yo but...
1. A+ condition pattern as 2 yo.
2. Pair might be enough.
3. Showing lots of early speed so far this year suggests to me she is probably just fine and n

TG speed figs are the best speed figs on the market, but one is not maximizing their potential if they don't know 1) The race shapes that these figures were run in and 2) Today's likely race shape.
