Even with that those races are called fairly until the "superstar" or horse to beat makes his move. To call a horse just because a certain jockey to win is in your best interest is a conflict. Thank God Rosario wasn't the regular rider of SECRETARIAT otherwise Joel would be moving like a machine.

How exactly is a race judged to be called 'fairly'? A race call is the callers opinion of what is happening. It has nothing to do with anything.
