Im putting the ride at 7 Dedumbeaux's

i disagree. that horse looked awful form the opening of the gate. what race were you watching, he stopped. he did not exactly lose by a length or two. it was not the same horse. i could tell he was in trouble on the first turn. going into the second turn i knew he was done. the thing i did not like about kent is he wouldn't admit that horse was sore. believe me i've seen enough races, the horse was trying to pull right from the start and was not even gliding smoothly like he did in the other races. God could of rode him he was not winning like that . he could of been scratched but that would of been a disaster, the pressure was on.
