You don't have to be a fan of his to believe he had a pretty good reason to tell the jockey not to hit a horse in a 2 million dollar race. I'm sure it wasn't on a whim. Of course that doesn't mean that the horse would have responded well to the whip but we will never know. That's the thing, half of this stuff is guesswork and 20/20 hindsight.
