Lets see 120 Lb Jockey trying to Control a 1000 Lb horse in Mud at 37 mph on a Curve in a crowd..He strays, corrects, and continues to outrun the field..A jockey whose horse was 65-1 complains..3 Sterwards decide to make History..As Hall of Fame jockey Jerry Bailey said on the broadcast, “yes it was a foul, but the fastest horse won the race” he didn’t see it being serious enough to overturn....But what would he know.. with so many internet experts out there...Outrageous Decision ruins Triple Crown drama..Horse Racing is going, going, go....
I wouldn’t have overturned it but you have no idea if the fastest horse won. War of Will was very much in a position to get the lead and hold it. Loosing the momentum he was building and the 7 horse was losing cost the 1 horse multiple lengths.
