Just state the facts, learn what you can, then move on.

blaming the jockey in this instance is simply not seeing things for what they are.

I totally agree, DC wasn't himself today for whatever reason...the jockey had no horse, plain and simple. I can see blaming a jock when a horse goes eight wide and loses a nose or is run into a box, but to see that race and think Frankie had any blame whatsoever shows, quite frankly, no understanding of horse racing!
