The fact that the filly was a little rank and pilling the whole time had a lot do with it.

Sometimes it's simply bad luck when a jockey gets into trouble. But obviously the bad jockeys tend to get into more trouble than the good jockeys. When you see the same jockey always getting into trouble, you have to think that there is a problem. I'm not sure why Gomez has been getting into so much trouble this year. Last year he always seemed to avoid trouble.
Rupert thats just an incredibly crazy thing to say. I mean, you really think its just "bad luck" that the horse was in trouble for for a mile and 3/8 but it wasnt the dirty little junkie's fault? It was just bad luck? The sooner that disgusting little junkie goes back to rehab the better off we will all be. You don't EVER see Prado or Velazquez giving a ride like that. That ride should go straight to the hall of fame across the street for worst rides ever by a junkie, oops I meant jockey.
