Sotique wanted no part of being inside. He wasn't going through. All Lezcano has to do was Keep Fandangle relatively straight and he wins the race. Lezcano SUCKS as a jock -- he cost me the race mentioned and the Lake George. Have no idea why I've read so many positive things about him.

The sad part is that these 'things' NEVER improve. You have owners and trainers relying on figure makers to determine claims and race placement YET when jocks take money out of their pockets they do nothing about it. Why do these jocks not take steps to improve their race 'comprehension' skills?
Seems to me, that this impetus needs to come from the owners/trainers. Or course, they're even more clueless in this area.

Daniel Dennett has argued that even MICE understand modus ponens. Clearly, jocks don't.
