Turfway Park Stewards to Explain Disqualifications

With NFL fans accustomed to hearing a brief explanation from officials if replay reverses a call on the field, Turfway Park and the stewards at the Northern Kentucky track are going to try a similar approach. If a horse is disqualified during racing at Turfway, chief state steward Barbara Borden will provide a voice-over explanation while the track replays the incident in question. In an effort to provide clarity and transparency, Turfway and the stewards plan the feature for both its holiday meet, which concludes Dec. 31; and the winter-spring meet, which runs Jan.1-March 31.
