Randall is right. A loss is a loss. Whether or not it was super impressive, if you needed him in the win slot you lose. Game over. You still tear up the ticket as you would if he stumbled at the start and threw his jockey. Or if he didnt fire and got beat by 20. Any horse can lose. Look at Butterface. One day she had a clear lead (6-7 lengths) in midstretch only to get caught by a Dutrow horse.
