The horse got beat by that Skip'n pss horse. That horse couldn't even win the West Virginia Derby. So, don't you think it's odd that Joel just lets a horse (that got a lil late last time) just go as fast as it wants to go? Don't you think he got that confidence from somewhere? Like maybe the trainer told him just get clear, he ain't stopping today. I mean, one of the reasons the horse was able to break the record is they let him run as fast (early) as he wanted to run. For a horse who slowed up late last time, they were pretty damn confident that he wasn't gunna stop today. Just saying. They expect everyone to hit the turf surface change button, and not ask questions. also, a jock change to the top jock. They like to have these 2 factors involved, because it helps give people a reason for a big change in performance.
