The Kentucky stewards are very consistent. That type of infraction would have warranted a DQ in any race, including the Derby. The people that are seemingly stunned by a horse coming out 4 paths and causing two horses to steady sort of blow my mind. The right call was made.

You can take whips away and stop allowing lasix, but if “public perception” is a concern then clean up the trainers using banned substances. It’s just that simple. You’ll never get a modicum of positive pub for reform vs negative backlash from situations like Medina Spirit.
