YOU BE THE STEWARD: 2021 TESIO STAKES
The Biz
April 26, 2021
In Saturday’s Federico Tesio Stakes at Pimlico, the erratic Excellorator was first over the line but was then disqualified for impeding the runner-up, The Reds. In fact, the jockeys on both The Reds (Victor Carrasco) and Royal Number (Julian Pimentel) objected against the winner.
Was it the right call? Check out the video above, and let us know below.

Which Colonial Downs jockeys and trainers are having a good meet? Who’s doing better than you’d think? Or heating up now? Answers within.
Under Maryland’s rules, the stewards may disqualify a horse if it carries another horse in or out, crosses or weaves in front of a horse without sufficient clearance, or jostles, intimidates, or impedes another horse. Unlike in some states, in Maryland the violation need not cost the other horse a placing.
So what it’ll it be? Leave the winner up? DQ and place him second? Or even DQ him and place him third?

26th Apr 2021If I were steward of the Racing Biz, I would get rid of theme music of DQ video that drowns out Dave Rodman’s great stretch call. But seriously, the stewards are out of control at Pimlico. 5 disqualifications to open the meet is ridiculous. Are the stewards the same as Laurel Park? It’s to the point where I can’t play there. Game is hard enough without those idiots interfering.
