Tactical edge? Kent got through a lucky hole. Many horses aren't good enough to get through that hole and most jockeys aren't brave enough to try. How does this have anything to do with how Castellano rode his horse? Getting through that hole was the difference in the race. Period. If you want to say that Kent rode a superior race, being that far off those fractions, I don't know what to tell you. Interactif was in perfect position. The horse wins if he is good enough. There was nothing "cute" or "lazy" about the ride. The horse wasn't good enough saturday.

I'm glad you can admit Kent got lucky and got through the rail. Maybe you don't understand what getting the jump on the field is, but do look at the race Workin For Hops ran on Saturday and what a proactive ride can do.
