Yep -- and he got to absolutely walk on a 23 2/5 loose lead while clear early -- Gantry was very passively ridden and that allowed Jake MO's rider to rush up, pin him down, and trap him.

Final furlong in 11 and change on dirt.

This is a case where if you had in-race wagering -- you'd have bet your lungs on the winner halfway through the race.

Of course the ride on Gantry was a very stupid one, by allowing him to get trapped he would have had to come home in mind-boggling fast time to win. He simply never had a chance.

Streak ends in the 8th race.
