It's being looked into

Bizarre race.

DRF is reporting the three-quarter time at 1:16.60.

What was posted seemed impossible

Looks like the 7/10 favorite was never in contention.

It harkens back to the Arlington Labor Day fiasco

Maiden claiming tag of $5,000.

Looked like the horse on the lead lost his action when entering the stretch drive.

Then he re-broke when the eventual winner went by him.

Strange.

Good point.

Though remember there once was a jockey (Sylvester Carmouche) who hid in the fog attempting to win a race.

Pulled a "Rosie Ruiz."

No penalties assessed in peculiar Assiniboia race

An investigation into a highly unusual ride by a jockey at Assiniboia Downs in Winnipeg, Canada, last week has concluded that the jockey “overcompensated” for the horse’s tendency to drift out, according to racing officials at the track and with the province’s regulatory commission.
