I don't think the bumping at the turn was bad but Smith said it took his horse off balance. He also said at that point all bets were off, or something to that affect. So he was going to race ride, too.
I think McK should not have been DQ'd. It seemed a fair fight to me, both jockeys race rode their horses. It was a fight to the finish. Are things always fair? Not necessarily, yet the strong will overcome and move on.
I still wonder if the Ky Derby is going to be wild and a long shot will prevail. How about a win for Lukas this year?
