Honestly, watch the race, as the ride is a real knee slapper. Even for a bad jockey that one really takes the cake. The only explanation I can think of is that someone dropped a hundred dollar bill in the ten path on the backstretch and Willie, being widest of all, saw it the first time around and wanted to scoop it up the second time.
Perhaps Willie is clairvoyant knowing Presque Isle was in his future saw the writing on the wall and Borel on Brass Hat in the future and knew this would be the only opportunity for Brass Hat to have the unique experience of running 12f 8 wide the entire way.
