Textbook horrible ride.
But Still, grade 3 animals
More importantly he may have only one run, so the Jock has to time his run. Better Talk Now was like this, only when Dominguez got on him that he started to win all those grade 1's. Rarely a Jockey makes this much impact on a horse, but Borel did and it is not solely for the rail ride.
