But, up to that point he had his horse in a perfect spot. No shame in getting outridden by Valdivia on the turf as I think he's a fantastic turf rider. But, Rosario should have won that race IMO. And I can absolutely understand someone that bet Obrigado having a beef with the outcome or thinking that the rider of Obrigado cost the horse the win. Especially with the finish so close.

Thank you. Again..I didnt bet the horse..was making a point. If you want to subsitute "Choke" with "stupid decision" thats fine.

Rosario is an ok jock.....my point is...he completely blew the race yesterday.
