DMR

I just can\'t win. Every race today at Del Mar ends in an Inquiry. They are DQ happy today I was all over the 9 horse in the 7th race at 13 to 1 and he was pounds the best. He came down.  F#^* this sport for now and forever. I\'m done

I\'m not going to off myself but I will instead cancel my August trip to DMR from the OC. The hell with this. Is there anyone out there that disagrees that the 9 was a clear winner? Pounds the best. F&%$ this.

Definitely a tough beat - but he came in on the #10 twice, costing #10 a placing.  If the #10 holds second, I think Square Deal stays up.

It probably didn\'t help that your rider Arroyo, Jr. has a reputation. . . .

I thought  the R5 DQ was questionable and the R7 was DQ was terrible. Talk about live  by the sword, die by the sword. I stay alive in P4 thanks to R5 DQ but see a terrible payoff as a result of the R7 DQ(I had the four horses including 9)

Yeah, I really don\'t understand Race 5.  All three horses involved drifted in - without contact or serious herding - but then the #6 came out and bumped the #8, initiating all the fireworks.

I don\'t see how the stewards\' decision made sense but I\'ve thought for a long, long time that SoCal stewards, no matter their names, are the most inconsistent of any decent-sized circuit in America.

Screw Del Mar now. I\'ve been a regular since 1999. The hell with them. I\'m over this track. I\'d rather bet Mountaineer or Hong Kong line or go to a sports book and bet baseball or football. I know that money is just something you need in case you don\'t die tomorrow, but I\'m over this crap.

First drift in didn\'t bother anyone.  The second drift in the horse was already clear and affected nothing.  Jock deserves an Emmy for that performance.  His reaction was completely out of whack for what was happening in front of him.

Another bad dq.  Nobody should have come down there.  Why jocks put themselves at the mercy of the stewards I don\'t know.  The horse is going to win stop whipping right handed.
