Rosario never wins grade 1's because he doesnt get the mounts yet to win grade 1's with.
Choke artist? LOL.

You don't think he blew that race? Come on. Watch the replay. Any smart jock wouldn't panic and go wide like that. He lost a ton of ground by going around the dying Winchester. He could have stayed inside and blown by the winner in the stretch....but he didnt and cost the connections a Grade I win.
The odds mean nothing when it comes to choking...I dont care if the horse was 1-9 or 40-1. Even with the incredibly dumb move by Rosario Obrigado still almost won.
And he doesnt get Grade I mounts because? There is a reason...and you saw it Saturday.
