At the end of the day it didn't cost me anything, but at the time I was fairly annoyed. I used Tommy Macho & Unified and I felt like Javy compromised both horses and let a 54-1 shot hold on.

Over reaction by me, or is it justified frustration with a top tier jockey on a 3/5 shot (even though he probably ran the 3rd best race there)?

I watched it at the racino. With a table of guys betting, everyone i was with thought he compromised both horses. Saez kinda ****ed it up 2. I think he wins going away with a clear outside run.
