you're right almost, LAL is in tight between horses right after the start and gets squeezed as he lays off the pace to save ground in the first turn and that puts LAL in a position where he never see a path to the outside of the pack and is stuck on the rail to wait for room. It never opened up and even if Gomez had much the best horse he was going to lose, so I beleive he rode a race that he had a greater chance to lose the race than win.
