The top 2 runners "squeezed" the 3, but the winner was storming past and was a no doubt winner with 70 yards to go, the 2nd place finisher came out a smidge and the 3 got "tightened up" but at the time of the incident, the outcome was basically decided, the 3 had every shot turning for home to run past the leader, but was tiring and that's why he got in tight late, i hate "Rewarding" a horse who's too slow to keep up and essentially gets "squeezed' because hes put himself in a position to have other horses come over on him.

You see this all the time in the game, the horse who circles up on the outside and runs past the tiring horse will "lug in" to the clear spot that was vacated by the horse to his left who isnt keeping up and the slower runner will "Steady" as the leader runs past.

Good job by the judges, this was a situation where there was theoretically some minor interference,but it didnt really affect the outcome and the reason the interference occured in the first place is because the bothered horse was just not keeping up. Good non takedown imo.

This is by far the worse jockey colony I have ever seen at MNR really any track for that matter pair it with cheap stock and you better get used to a lot on inquiries, objections and disqualifications...Don't even get me started on the Stewards.....

The top 2 or 3 guys there are decent, Eddie Martin is riding there now, he's a solid Louisiana veteran who (i guess) just moved there to ride full time. Parker leaving for Texas has weakened the colony for sure.

I thought for sure the 6 was coming down for cutting off the 4; then I thought the 5 was coming down for knocking the 1 into the 4. Though at the same time I thought the jock on the 1 was an idiot for trying to create a hole between the 5 and 4. The way the 1 was moving I think that horse with a better ride would have won.

Holy crap how could I forget! Must be that old age stuff. Had me roaring. Haven't heard Johnny for a long time. He could make someone tying their shoe entertaining. He was such a homer he was beautiful.

I do not know anything about the DQ situation. I just know that there are a handful of tracks that beat me consistently. As such, I do not play them.

MNR, CT, EVD, DED all fall into that category (for me).

Perhaps your experience is different.

Pretty funny Dave-- those are the tracks I play and Penn. I cant do anything with Santa Anita or the NY tracks. Forget Tampa and Fair Grounds.
