Worse beat is knowing you had the best horse singled, and can't get up. People singling Jewel were looking for trouble happening to a better horse. Didn't happen (not enough.) They had every break (slow pace, lost ground for B.L. etc.) Singled an inferior animal. They think they had a tough break, but they had a lot of breaks. The other horse is too good. That's caused by Hollendorfer picking easy spots.
