Imo, refreshing to see a racing jurisdiction where the stewards won't put up with that nonsense (herding.)

Cordero was an absolute MASTER at herding/carrying. He was so smooth at it, the Stews hardly ever noticed....Or, willfully ignored it. I can't believe back then there was a star system that allowed it....But damn, Angel could make holes that weren't there
