Jockey Bahaviour - Pace and Cap

tleusin · 03-24-2018, 05:00 PM

In the ninth race today, 3/24/18 the rider of #8 Sassy Slew Sassy Slew, Ricardo Feliciano, rode the horse from start to finish sitting upright. I have seen dressage riders crouched further over their horse than Mr. Feliciano was at any time during the race.
I had no money on the race, just watching it on TVG and then watched the replay on BetAmerica just to be sure. Should this not be subject to disciplinary
action be the stewards? I feel like this damages public perception of horse racing and is actually fraudulent.
Am I over reacting?
