Woodbine - Broken Equipment
« on: April 29, 2024, 10:42:52 PM »
So Saturday night I saw something I never witnessed before.  There was a 1-5 in the race and he won.  The second choice ran second.  They called an inquiry and disqualified the second place finisher for “throwing a shoe” before the race. Really???   I never saw this EVER.   Has anyone seen this elsewhere?

They did NOT dq Captain Wania --but he was considered a scratch

I thought it was quite bizarre myself but yes I have seen broken equipment horses get scratched after the race

I believe the connections collect the 2nd place purse money but not 100% sure

The disqualification was for wagering purposes only, no different then if there was interference before the start. Purse money awarded as per finish but this protects the betting public

  • Sweet: A pussy to the end, I talk more racing than you.  You talk me 90% of the time for 6 months.  Seriously dude, drop to your knees and pray to be a man again.

  • Kirby's Ace: Atleast we can get a break from that. A much welcomed break for sure

  • Kirby's Ace: Onething for sure is plop members will be able to discyss horse racing without you drawing people into your fantasy world of make believe abd insults. Having to lower one's standards to be able to converse to yourvs quite difficult.

  • Sweet: Guy starts a NAZI thread then says he won't lowe himself.  Will protect Kirby's family  tmbz1 Anytime Calhoun and Kirby would start losing badly in a bang they'd call ADMIN or whomever had the BANDED button, then taunt their enemy who was beating them to a pulp to apologize...basic ally they need to have someone's hands held behind their backs so they can throw their mousy haymakers which land like cotton balls  ngc3  The no shows, all that bullshit is no surprise, compared to having to band someone who kicks your fucking teeth in, deservedly.  ngc3  Kirby & Calhoun - forever.  :-*  If they're HOF, then the Plop HOF is complete bullshit!  ;D
