It was God who said that he should be 4 wide the whole way around the track?

Kent just said that he just didn't have any horse left at the turn for home. No problems with the leg, just that the horse just didn't have it today.

Coa made Brown go so wide on the backstretch.
Not that it was the excuse. He clearly knew who
he was going to push out.

I know, It didn't help but that is not why he lost. but this was the first time that encountered a little trouble. He looked very uncomfortable out of the gate.

Yea...that's likely the reason he eased... extended way too much energy going 4 wide....although, in the Derby, I think he was 10 wide and won in a gallop.
