As for the other, McCarron said it himself, he Fed up the ride on Alysheba, so it could have been him.
Alysheba lost the Belmont by about 10 lengths. Van Berg has criticized McCarron's ride and thinks that Alysheba should have been on the lead. I don't care where McCarron had the horse. He lost the race by 10 lengths. If he would have been 3 lengths closer to the lead, do you think that would have made up 10 lengths? Van berg's criticism of McCarron's ride is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. If Alysheba would have had a jet engine underneath him, he still would not have beaten Bet Twice that day.
