It wasn't necessitated by the post at all. Nobody wanted to go and Centeno seized the opportunity. Instead of wrangling the horse back, he chose not to fight him and let him roll. The grab fest behind him won the race.
There is going to have to be some major improvement for any horse to come out of that race and do much of anything the rest of the year. Ugly group.
