WHY DIDN'T DESORMEAUX PULL-UP GOLDEN DOC A DURING THE RACE?
she lost ground throughout and was hopelessly beaten. he had no horse turning for home. didn't he consider that something might have been amiss? After all I was told on the other thread that he did the correct thing with Big Brown, well then isn't this the wrong thing? it looks like he at least let her run to the wire. of course Golden Doc A isn't worth 50 million so maybe thats the difference.

I think somebody may have mentioned on the other thread that he pulled her up quickly after the wire and her connections were not happy. But I want to know why he didn't pull her up DURING the race like he did Big Brown.

good point jimmy
