They did look at it no?
What was the inquiry about?

The bodycheck resulting from the deep-stretch convergence of the two.

It\'s not particularly amazing that Servis has been markedly less than bulletproof since the broad public brouhaha over Affaire d\'Fresian Fire.

He is still at 29% this Meet. Not ice cold but where was the last second $100,000 Vote of Confidence unless someone knew the juice wasnt in play!!

I believe McKenzie was taken down earlier this Spring and Baffert promptly threatened to ship to Arkansas. And that fixed that....

Baffy continues to make a mockery of the rules.  It hurts to laugh so hard at those in charge.  To big to be exposed is what I as told.

Big shout out to TG gang.  Always fun, always interesting.  Allen thanks for the seminar and your pick in the Sword Dance.  Frank!  You dug me out of a huge whole with your assertion on Catholic Boy, add in my love for Mendelssohn and that speed favoring super highway led to a nice score.  Hope to see some of you in the Ville for the BC.

I have Cashed on this one a few times since she shipped over. I think after yesterday I will say the run is over. I have noticed this about Brown imports before. They run Wired for a few races and then it all dies out of their system. Gran Jete last year was one ans could not have been more dull in the BC. Never to be heard from again.

I think this Baffert filly probably overcooked it. Moved over from Hess and promptly fires a -2 then -1 and probably a -4. This doesnt hold up. Mor Spirirt was nothing after his -7 Met Mile. She probably trains from here to BC. Buyer beware that day...

When I wrote to the State Steward after the Freisen Fire race there were many who thought I was \"conflating\" the issue of Servis as a chemist  with the last minute computer betting.While I strongly disagree with that \"separatist\" view with respect to that particular case, we will likely never know since neither the stewards nor NYRA deem this an issue worthy of response, comment or discussion. Shame on NYRA and its Board for their silence.I believe  grown ups need to behave like grown ups-the only remedy bettors have-other than the persistent kvetching- is to adjust their betting handle and deliver an economic message to all the authorities involved in racing.The bet is 1-20 that will not happen except through attrition.

[johnnym]

Exactly my point they did look at it.

[BitPlayer]

I think Frank\'s point is that there was a jockey\'s objection, which the stewards did look at, but no stewards\' inquiry.  Contrast that with the 13th, in which there was both an objection and an inquiry.

[johnnym]

Well then I learned soemthing did not know there was a difference?
Always up for a teachable moment.
I hope I get to move on the the 6th grade Frank.
