KD first came inside then pushed out and kept brushing and pushing out charitable man every few strides, checked his horse (convocation) repeatedly as he kept moving into impossible holes just to stay with CM and, of course, cost his own horse any chance in the race. Compromising CM along the way.
KD has been riding great but it is these kinds of rides that make it difficult to handicapp a race.
In the Belmont, Alan got taught a lesson by Desormeaux. Alan moved when he saw MTB's premature move and flattened out in the stretch in what was a distance he probably was not meant to run. I just don't know what to make of CM at this point.

What kind of ride were you expected from Dedumbeaux? In terms of quality?
You could send him a message on facebook like I did.
