i just read that the hollywood park stewards (also known as the three blind mice, or the trinity of idiots) gave corey nakatani three days for his ride on original first place finisher, epicentre in saturday's hollywood turf cup. i had absolutely no monetary stake in the race and thought the dq was completely inappropriate, particularly in a grade 2 race where the horses should decide the outcome. then, to add insult to injury, they give nakatani days for failure to maintain a straight course? it's totally absurd, and the stewards should have their decisions reviewed- i'd give them days for incompetence.
