The jockey does deserve some credit for the great work he did in the first fifty yards.

Unlike last time when BB stumbled coming out of the gate (the chart caller somehow didn't catch it but it was obvious) - he got the horse to break sharply, and most importantly, he hustled him to get to the front and get position on the first turn.

Had BB broke like he did last time, or had he been ridden passively, you would not have seen the kind of performance he displayed.

yeah, great that he knew not to take back from the 12 post. what a brilliant tactician.
nobody would have thought to send from out there.

Come on DrugS, you of all people should be able to appreciate this ride. I agree that clearing the field was key, but look at how many runs were made at the horse. Any other jocks ALLOWS the others to come to him. He asked the horse with each bid and thus ensured that NOTHING would be around late.

It was a thorough ass kicking. Could you imagine the punk War Pass having to break from the outside and the be run at repeatedly. He'd be in tears after 1/4 mile.
