Dedumbeaux's Ride

[The Bid]

He may not have won today but the ride on that horse from the 1 hole was a high ranking Dedumbeaux butcher job

Ive never said hes a genius, I think hes a dumb rider. He had clean trips in the Preakness and Derby. He could have had a clean trip today if KD would have let him roll early

Bob when he talked about the horse on ESPN he never said well we had it rough early, I got in tight early, I had to steady. He said I gave the horse a nice clean trip and just didnt have any horse. If thats a nice clean trip Id hate to see what he thinks a bad trip is.

I'm not arguing that point, but what do you think he wanted/was supposed to do? Was the plan to go out with Da Tara? I don't think sending BB on the engine in the Belmont was the plan

[The Bid]

Yeah, why not go with Da Tara. If they think the horse is that good he should surely have been able to eyeball De Tara early and at least had a clean run

I'll stop now as defending Desormeaux can only go so far...My feeling was if he didn't have the horse (maybe you disagree), I'm not going to blame the ride for the result

I do not agree or disagree that the trip would have mattered. He may have been flat today, we will never know. What I do know is that a horse thats never had any traffic trouble steadied like that early and starts tossing their head around youre going to be in real trouble when the running begins. Im not saying he would have won, but Dedumbeaux didnt give him any chance to run his race.

Im upping the ride to 8 Dedumbeaux's
