Race 4 #1 Within The Wild scratched DEAD.
The horse was uncontrollable and tossed Mike Merton and eventually went down and had to be carted away.

The Merton's have been a dominant family for awhile at the "Mighty M". I'm old enough to remember the Manzi's (Cat, Gary, Richard, Steve, John, & Al) who were a powerful racing family. The Gilmours, (John, George, Lloyd, & Buddy) were a big presence at the Mighty M too!

No outrider there to help keep the horse under control.  How is that allowed?

Anyone look at the list of winning trainers on Tuesday at Monti?  A lot of suspect trainers now taking the small purses too?  Sad times for the small operations.   tmbz1
