I've been pretty critical of riders this meet, but I think you're being a bit ridiculous. Her race before last Saturday, a paceless affair at Parx she fought Lezcano when he had her up close to the pace. Just going by her form, she appears to be a horse that likes to settle and make one run. At least that is what she did her first three races in this country.

I don't think he wrangled her back. She threw her head after the break, but a few strides out of the gate she settled and seemed comfortable where she was. She had every chance and just did little running.
