Do I think it mattered? He lost the race 220 yards in by not putting the best and fastest horse on the lead. Allowing the horse to get pinned down, steadied, and ultimately buried. It was a horrible ride, yes I think it mattered. I think it cost the horse any chance he had of winning. Pathetic ride and he took no fault for the horses lack of run late.
He was rank because he let that crow cross over on him. He ran up heels, he steadied 3 times before they were 300 yards in. Looked like a bad run at Los Al
