Stewards’ decisions coming out of objections and inquiries have been under the microscope recently. Controversial decisions in the Cotillion Stakes, the Wood Memorial, the San Felipe Stakes, the Los Alamitos Futurity and, of course, the 2014 Breeders’ Cup Classic have lit up social media. So what’s going on? It’s the subject for a special round table on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Stewards Bernie Hettel from Kentucky and Jon White from California join Eclipse Award-winning horseplayer Paul Matties in a wide-ranging discussion that identifies problems and offers solutions. Also, the Caulfield Cup in Australia and Champions Stakes in England are previewed, and the racing flashback remembers a pioneering race that was started 66 years ago. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod is available at Apple Podcasts, Google Play Podcasts and Stitcher.
