Today's race I am not sure the horse would have gone by, but I think it would be nice if he didn't have to spend from 1:38-1:40 running sideways, and hesitating to avoid Gomez' horse that came over. He has very little time to then start going by again. This guy is very good at making it look like his horse had the most run. He couldn't do it on 7/11/08. That other horse had a run on him, and he stopped hitting his horse righthanded in order let him come out in an effort to bump/intimidate the horse who was gunna go by. Today's was probably not intentional, but he swats his horse hard lefthanded, and the horse comes out into the other horse's way for 2 seconds. The horse can't run straight for 2 seconds. He has to run sideways, and wait until the other horse is out of his way. .

I guess he didn't bother to show up for work today...
