Watched Cotillion with Baffert who is now a little concerned how to solve the Abel Tasman quandary of breaking slow and rushing full throttle into contention. Said once she gets going the way she did, she becomes hard to handle, so he understands Smith just having to let her roll.
Will see what he thinks tomorrow 11:30 on ATR including consideration of F&M Sprint v. Distaff.

Smith is a $$ rider that can get a little more out of many horses, but he basically goes two ways...last to first, or first to first. If he's stuck in between, you'll see some odd rides.
Just my opinion and I'm sure I'll get roasted for it.

I think he had the best horse by far in that race and could have waited. However I'm 45 years from being jockey so who knows but think
It was s bad ride

I'm convinced that to be a jockey that you have to secretly fail a test that finds out your intelligence.
Any really good rides are purely accidental.

It's ridiculous to label Smith doing what he could under the scenario of Abel Tasman running off as 'a bad ride'.
