after 26.2 opening quarter he backed down waiting for sears to brush to the front he was racing for second ake quote after the race

So why is it his fault that sears didn’t come after him?

Ridiculous
Are we gonna start fining guys for winning?

2nd quarter 21 lengths slower then the first...
It is called racing not chess...
I have no problem with a guy backing down a quarter but there has to be a fair pace imo..

Maybe I am in the minority but thought he should have been given a stiffer fine & days..

I agree in some extent

When you back it down and cause confusion in the backfield which is a safety issue that’s one thing

But to back it down to gain advantage is another thing
He did nothing wrong

Fined for winning
Bullshit

Ask any driver what they think of the fine then ask them why they didn't pull. THE FINE IS RETARDED

yo, yo, I Kiss The Phallus,

Calm down, punk.  For 5700 posts you sound as stupid as the resident idiots Hammer Head, Lice Man, Slim Shitty, Stunned Forever and The Extorter.  He slowed it down too much.  If anyone pulls he gets parked and killed.  Ake is super, but driving is not his strong suit.  Imagine Billy O or Campbell on the front with that horse.  Would have won with waaaaay more style.   Unable to Earn had it right.  Listen to him, not the Hitler Youth.  Until next time, sweeties......... ..HEIL HITLER!!

What is absolutely ridiculous is he would do it again to win a $500,000. race and who wouldn't pay $200 to get that advantage.

That is what is the problem with this industry, fines and suspensions  DON'T DETER anyone from doing things over and over again.

de·ter

verb
discourage (someone) from doing something by instilling doubt or fear of the consequences.
"only a health problem would deter him from seeking re-election"
synonyms:   put off, discourage, dissuade, scare off;
