how can a horse be scratched and yet race for purse money?

At Gulfstream No. 5 race, the No. 2 was scratched for parimutuel purposes but allowed to run for purse money. Now what happens if that horse interferes with a horse I got money on? Never heard of this.

???  He would never be placed for parimutuel purposes.  For purse purposes claim foul all you want.

you obviously don't watch a lot of races

in NY--the still have coupled wagering(1 &1A)--if one of them is a gate scratch-the other one is allowed to run for purse money only

this happens many times throughout the year

  • dougie: Harness racing Revolution.....I understand why you feel the way you do. But like me, there are many who support the care of horses and the work that you do. Why penalize your supporters for the actions of a few misguided ignorant shit stirrers?

  • Harness Racing Revolution: Here's my response, I don't care. And not a fucking thing they can do about it. Same way they choose to not care. Sorry dude.

  • dougie: Harness Racing Revolution.....I never knew the Iceland connection. I believe it when you tell me cyber harassment is illegal. But if the admins choose to do nothing, what avenue is there for the folks who want to enjoy the "horse talk" in this group?

  • Harness Racing Revolution: dougie, DDOS attacks are illegal, in this country. Plop is based in Iceland. But cyber harassment is also illegal, in the US. Most of these IPs talking shit are US based. Just saying. Admins condone it, so fuck em!  ngc3
