Just to clarify, I don't have a big problem with the time of the work, just the fact that Pino apparently didn't know how fast he was going.
I would think that after that many rides, you would be able to work a horse for 5 furlongs & be able to come back & say, "that was a 57" or something like that. Maybe I'm in a dream world, but this is a long race & I want my jockey to know when the pace is a 57, or a 1:09, etc, etc...and respond appropriately.
