No. But, Pal tossed Chavez during the post parade and Chop Chop didn't remount until Pal had been loaded and just seconds before the break.

I am not really sure what Choppy's plan was. Pal broke well but then got hung wide around the first turn and then was taken back. Not really sure why you make that move to be hung only to be brought back to a position that you could have gotten easily without having to use the horse early. Just seemed to me like there was no sense of where he wanted the horse in the race.

Thanks for the info; I hadn't realized that.
