Rupert,
That horse does exactly what he wants to do when he wants to do it. Have you seen his other races? bejarano was just a passenger. Gomez didn't choose to rate that horse, the horse did what he wants. Choosing to rate means breaking well and grabbing a hold and taking back.
he didn't do anything wrong, but his reaction when the horse started that crazy move was funny to watch. Horse took him from 15 back to 6 back in a matter of seconds. he was saving ground(the right thing to do when trailing) and when the horse started that run without him urging him, he yanked him HARD to the right because it honestly looked like he was scared that he was gonna run into the back of the leaders. That was a pretty scary move.
