It's a shame anytime a jockey gets attention.
no, i understand how i'll have another won...but i don't understand how a horse can be brilliant in defeat while the winner is subpar. several other closers didn't manage to do that, but i'll have another prevailed. i agree that some of the crop is less than stellar, but i don't think that judgement should be passed onto the winner. several others were there on the line, but he was the only one to have some distance on the field.
