Thanks for the objective opinions though because my $$ was definitely on Passager and I've also had back luck with Prado lately, so I'm probably just the sour grape guy here.

I understand the point you are making, there are rider's that look busy down the stretch and the appearance is they may get more run out of horses. Gomez is a strong finisher who is often busy, the polar opposite is Dominguez, he will hand ride horses to the wire and they will finish strong. I guess what I am saying is you don't always have to look busy to have a horse finish, it is an interesting point of discussion you bring up.
