If Soros was involved, you can bet there was.

...New York Gaming Commission steward Steve Lewandoski told the Daily Racing Form that there is no plan to talk to Geroux...

...It’s not unusual for horses from the same stables to help each other in a race.

To that end, Repole was not happy with his own jockey, Javier Castellanos, who was aboard Noble Indy and was expected to push to the lead, possibly wearing down Justify for a late run by Vino Rosso...

Is Mike Repole the Hillary Clinton of horse racing?

You mean an entire sport that is based on gambling may be corrupt?

On a scale of 1 to 10 in importance this ranks maybe .001.

Why owners and anyone else with any interest at all in the outcome should only be allowed only one entry per race.

Otherwise you will end up with NASCAR style team racing that has altered and clouded the pure competitiveness of the race.

Watch the race. No horse was boxed in. Poor loser.

One of the NBC commentators asked BAffert Saturday about Restoring Hope’s odd run and he said that Restoring Hope’s only chance was to try to get out front quickly. (However, Justify was leading from beginning to end.)

The owners of the other horses think that’s the reason they lost. Maybe Justify is just a superior horse.

A nine horse field over a mile and a half does not allow a lot of blocking opportunities. Justify went wire to wire.

Hillary Repole is the exact right new nickname.

When I saw the stable mate getting out to the lead then slowing down this was my precise thought as an untrained race observer - kinda like what they do in Nascar.

Justify lead wire to wire....unless the other Baffert horse was able to run sideways and block...say four horses at once, this is crap. Any of the other horses, including Vino Rossa, could have taken a wider route or a route on the rail and gone past the other Baffert horse. There were only ten horses in the race for heaven’s sake.

That’s the exact reason why Restoring Hope was in there.

Cheating? Well, Soros is involved so should it be any surprise? Very simple, prove it and void the win.
