They really did. The fact that he was going to lose a very talented horse by a little less than a length before being struck is no knock. I also liked the way he persevered thoughout the lane even when the other horse rerallied and looked him in the eye again. Lets put it this way, the dq'd winner cost 2.9 million, the horse you bought into cost only 100 grand at auction. Rondo is probably the better of the two but hes not 29 times better or 2.8 million better. Actaully with Rick training the horse I would say that his chances at a longer and better managed career are higher than Rondo's.
