It actually looked like Talamo was very still in the irons until he found that seem. To his credit he was very patient and didn't try to force his way through a hole that wasn't there. But he really didn't have a whole lot of options going in to the top of the stretch. He was stuck inside Just a Coincidence and West Side Bernie.
