Title: Stewards Inquiry in the Princess Rooney
Post by: Silver Charm on July 11, 2009, 03:35:01 PM

Todd Pletcher just won his first Grade One of the year and the CRC Stewards were so shocked they had to review the race a couple of times.

Way to go Todd!!

Was surprised the 7-horse wasn\'t taken down.  Seemed to clearly put the 1 into the rail.  (Perhaps a jaundiced view, as I had the 1).

That horse absolutely should have come down.  I had the exacta with the 7 but fully expected to lose via dq.  One of the few times I was happy that the stewards are blind.
