Belmont 1st DQ - Thoughts?
« on: September 22, 2017, 01:25:42 PM »
Always hate to see horses go down, but does anyone have an opinion on the DQ of Archival in Bel 1. Looking at the replay he seemed at least a half length clear of  Shoot the Gap when he fell. In fact the horse they moved up to second actually seemed to bump him right before he fell. I thought he should have stayed up, but anyone else have an opinion?

F-Troop strikes again...Shamrocked was the responsible party for driving Shoot the
Gap outward two to three paths...Archival lugged in one path only and was not
responsible for the crowding.

Per Twitter. Cut him some slack, at least he has an alibi.
