also, it was a bad break for the outside horses, i believe it was the eventual last place horse who veered wide right at the start, compromised the start for several...and of course you're not going to really push your horse up to the front after that, just let them go easy, so the tin man didn't get as much pressure early on as he may have otherwise....

but yeah, he won it fair and square. i'd imagine several riders thought the old guy would back up to them. bad enough being wrong without being wrong in front of the stands, and on t.v.
