I dont have a problem with this. Its no different to me than the ride Chavez gave on Eightfiveinafifty when he stopped urging the horse at the 1/16th pole when he was leading by 15 and still drawing away, winding up winning by 17.

but timmy why quit riding when the horse in front of you is going backwards?
even gpk said borel would have ridden the horse out , he still wouldn't have won in gpk's opinion , but explain to me why he would stop trying and in gpk's opinion borel would have kept trying .....shouldn't you always ride out even if the chance to win is less than 10% ????
