The speeds actually scratched out of the race and if he had let the new Dutrow set his own pace he would not have won.

The bottom line is he gave the horse the best chance it had given the circumstances and lost. The winner got a perfect trip and is probably a better horse.

You're nitpicking.
You don't think his best chance once he found himself on the lead was to go? He had him wrapped pretty good for that middle quarter.
