as an aside, dutrow admitted he didn't have a thin dime on frost giant that day-so that sort of throws your theory a bit.

Not to mention this quote from Dutrow that it was almost entirely Rudy Rodriguez that got the horse to do what he did:
"I just figured, what’s a mile going to do?” Dutrow said of his decision. “I could have just screwed him up if I tried it. For the last two or three weeks, this horse settled down in the mornings.
This was mostly Rudy, not just today, but in the mornings."
I wonder if Rudy Rodriguez is included in those "big money connections" this dude values so much.
