I have to wonder if Leparoux had any kind of a plan there, the horse breaks well and he strangles the horse back causing the horse to fight and go wide the first turn losing position towards the rear then pins the horse on the rail far back before sending the horse into a wall of horses when he has run. Not exactly a recipe for success.
I agree that the decision to put blinks on really looks bad after that run.
