It was the first race at the "new" gulfstream a few years back, I was there and had my binocs on the turn into the stretch and didn't know what was happening when the outriders going the wrong way. It was chaos. At least this time they were prepared to declare "no contest" quickly. with their previous fire drill experience, still working on the timing problems though.
