i just watched it and it definately did not look like he horse took any bad steps. I almost looked like the jock just lost his balance and had to bail.
Somebody better call Scavs and tell him to get into the hot box.

They dont make a box hot enough

Word was that Tim told them the horse took a few awkward steps and it caused him to simply lose his balance.

That was adventurous enough, until the 9 bailed in the stretch.

Though in Operetta's defense, she certainly got a workout giving everyone a ton of trouble corralling her....took them quite a bit to get her under control after the race

i watched this race live and does anyone on here think that the 9 was gonna go on and win that race? i did. it didn't look to me like they were coming to him and he was 45-1. Surprsied i didnt have money on that 9 the way things are going lately.

We talked a bit about that -- it looked like she was going on with it, for sure. Not sure she would have held off the winner, but she would have had a great chance.
