So, they check out the horse and then what?
The vet makes the decision to scratch Barbaro? I hate to say it, but you almost can't scratch him even if you think there's something wrong.
Imagine this hypothetical scenario.
Vet scratches Barbaro and denies his opportunity to win the TC. It comes out a day or two later after interviewing the trainer, "i don't know why they scratched him, there was nothing wrong with him"
Guess where that vet ends up plying his trade the next day?
Siberia.
