The best horse won. LR can't rate and SC can. The jockey wins 90% of the time with the horse but when he loses it is his fault. Ever think the Derby horses and SC are faster. LR has never been that fast.

Blame the trainer. The horse wont rate. The only jockey that I would use on Lawyer Ron is P Val. He would sit on him like a sack of potato and hang on.

I was serious about P val riding LR. You never see him fight a horse to place him, he's real good at not wasting your horse.

You obviously didn't watch the Rebel S or the St. Louis Derby. Ron rated quite nicely in those races. Even was off the pace until the far turn in the Arkansas Derby. He wouldn't rate today for some reason and his jock tried to MAKE him; always a mistake.

I agree with you that LR has alot of talent ,but we saw this trend start a Keenland. He wont rate.

If i remember correctly, in the ARK. Derby, he was off the pace until midway round the CLUBHOUSE turn, and took command at the 6 furlong, and tugged McKee with him. Basically was a carbon copy of the ARk derby today, just didnt win.
