Title: Harrington 5th race
Post by: Kirby's Ace on June 16, 2021, 05:47:50 PM
Watch the fifth race and see the start on the heavy favorite!

Then ask me why Standardbreds are getting a bad rap!

How can you not issue a recall or at least a refund on the 5?

unbelievable. There should have been a refund or a recall. He was distanced at the start.

Forget whatever the rule is.  What's pitiful are the judges or starters that oversee this.  If I'm a novice watching this, and betting my money on that horse, that's basically the last bet I'd ever be making on this sport.  Little wonder this "business" can't get out of it's own way to make itself viable.

As a better all I ask for is a fair shake. That's why we have judges upstairs. But how in the hell can you not refund or recall that field?

I don't blame the driver. But he should of just turned the horse around or took him right to the paddock!

Starter has control of the field and he should be fined or suspended for not recalling the field!

Why should I ever bet another race at Harrington...I'm done ..I'll bet my 2 bucks else where!

That was not a stiff job. Absolutely the starter/judges, which is really criminal. Forget Harrington.

‑The Starter may sound a recall only for the following reasons:
 (1) A horse scores ahead of the gate.
 (2) There is interference.
(3) A horse has broken equipment.

MOST GAMBLERS ARE VERY STUPID PEOPLE. I SEE YOU IN THIS THREAD

Ooh.. that definitely stinks if you bet on this horse.. I’d be upset too.. just curious was this horse still scoring down on the other side of the track when they were called to the gate? He was so far away.,

Some tracks have a designated marker where if a horse has not reached this fair start pole when the starter says go, the horse is declared a nonstarter, and all monies refunded. The horse is also put on the steward's list to re-qualify. Obviously, Harrington does not have one. If they do, the starter and judges messed up big time.
