Title: Abbreviation Codes DX ?
Post by: makingit on September 20, 2019, 07:32:47 PM: In the race charts it shows "DX" . Looked it up in USTA and it says "Driver caused break". How would they know so soon after the race and posting the charts and how does a driver cause a break? What would be a few examples a driver caused break? (Harrahs Philadelphia Race 4 09/20/19.) And does the plain "X" mean the horse caused the break?
