It is a misconception to immediately gravitate towards the jockey when a horse gets a bad trip. It is often jockey error but far from always. In this case I tend to think it was situational and the horse.

It's the jocks fault. It has to be. Or else people would have to look elsewhere for blame, justification or something of the like. LOL.
