"good performance from that horse, but i must say, they really should get rid of those silks. there is no excuse for those silks to be on the track"

that isn't verbatim but that was the gist of it, he was definately pissed about someone wearing those colors. makes me think they use those silks cause they know it pisses him off.
Interesting. This makes a bit more sense now if there's some history here. So these guys were mad at Rudolph for dissing the confed flag, which they might not view as a racist symbol any more than Lynard Skynard did.
