The DQ (or non-DQ) complaint thread

There's a lot of DQs that aren't 'cost a placing' in nature. They don't affect the betting yet they come down anyway. If they can look the other way in some rich owners 'ky derby' they could look the other way in MY 'ky derby'.

I did. I was mildly amused the horse went off second choice to the horse she allegedly interfered with last time.

Silly inquiry at TuP in the last race, light brushing at wire but didnt affect outcome, right call to leave it up.

That statement shows just how clueless you are. The word inquiry only means the stewards are looking at film and want the public to know. Many times if something during the live running looks strange the stewards will put the inquiry up even though they know there's little chance of any action. They want you to know they saw that strange thing just like everybody else.

To call any inquiry silly means you obviously don't know what the word means.

You've already said that there's essentially an inquiry every race, they could have looked at that one time on the headon before lighting the lamp and then made it official without wasting everyone's time.

I didn't see it so I have no opinion on that incident.

The inquiry light was up before the last horse hit the wire.....maybe they do things differently in Az and they don't look at incidents with a 'once over' before lighting the light. The horse who got brushed was 1-5 so maybe that was a factor in the lit lamp but man, that was a very quick inquiry it was blinking instantly.

I was sure they would dq the winner

A 4 pct jock steadies in traffic on the first turn. Gets beat a long way for top 2 spots, yet these CT clowns take down the winner.

Nothing shocks me at this place.

That was a terrible DQ at Charles Town.

lost on both these two dq's, but from my vantage point the CT dq seemed ok

And what vantage point was that?

Hey SRU, aren't you jumping the gun on the Mr. 25k thing? That's something you have to earn first.
