It's more telling on the pan shot, by the time they straighten away through the lane, the trouble had occured and Ap Arrow is tipped out. The head-on doesn't capture it as well.

DrugS, maybe Kent didn't give up his position quick enough for your liking.

However, he really rode that part of the race as well as he could. If he moves out when you want him to, he would be force to go around Chatain and Hesanoldsalt (and they entered the stretch 5 and 6, I believe).

By waiting, he enters INSIDE of Chatain but is still skunked as Hesanoldsalt decides to move in and he has to wait for a split second and go around that one. If he doesn't have to wait and angle out, if he gets a straight and clear run, he's easily 2nd.

Oh, I'm not saying he rode a bad race....not at all.

In fact, an arguement could be that he rode a tremendous race...albeit a very, very, very agressive one........
