I saw a horse take advantage of no one chasing him to 3 quarters
I saw a jockey neverhit the horse until inside the 16th pole and I saw the horse then open up to extend his lead and they were taps not whips

are you not supposed to save your horse as most you can while winning if circumstance arises? they both said these 2 horses didn't scare anyone away from kentuck derby im glad they said that becausae I cant wait to unload on justify and mayme with therecomments he goes from 5-2 to now 4 to 1 thank you
Where did you get the idea that Jerry Bailey's comments would have a big effect on the horse's odds in the Ky Derby? His comments won't have any effect, literally zero effect. I don't there is any commentator whose opinion would change a horse's odds that much in the Ky Derby.
