What do you make of Sporting Art's flop at Arlington? Any legitimate excuse?

You should watch the race. First of all, the winner wired the field, secondly he was hung out to no man's land on the first turn, but mostly he was put in a package on the turn and stretch. He probably was clear, between horses, late, but nobody really gained and he never really had a fair chance.
