Prairie Meadows race 6
The 5 Wilbo comes out of the gate and sideswipes the 6. Then he cuts off the 1 right before the turn. Jockey objected but the blind judges didn't make a change. The 1 almost came back and got 4th at 63-1. Maybe the 5 being even money and the 1 the longest shot on the board swayed their decision just a little. It shouldn't matter, but who the hell knows. No consistency whatsoever.
Here's an idea. How about setting something up like the NBA has. An office where the stewards report to every day and they look over any objections or inquiries from all tracks. Have a certain amount of crews and shifts. At least there should be more consistency.
