Title: Meadowlands race 7
Post by: Superfecta on February 06, 2026, 09:22:58 PM

Can someone explain the ruling please.
How is the 2 scratched for not getting a fair start when he got away better than the rail horse.
He was only a few steps behind the gate. Some races horses are an 1/8th of a mile off and they don’t get an inquiry.
Also, is the owner fucked out of purse money as well ??

I watched the replay of the start several times and the only possible reason is the horse had broken equipment.
