He saw a spot open for Douglas. Knew he would win if he took it. So he made damn sure he couldn't take it. He didn't even have enough horse to take that spot. When Douglas is pushed out, Cajun doesn't even take the spot. He takes the rail. He had nothing. That blows.
Theriot never saw Douglas,as he was looking ahead of his horse.Douglas was coming up from BEHIND him.Accidents happen in this game,and that is what this was,an ACCIDENT!! So for you to crucify Theriot is totally unfair.How do you think Theriot feels about all this?? And you sit and b>itch about cajun riding,Or how jockeys go too wide all the time,yet you were all happy with the way Calvin rode in the derby.You are way out of line to go after Theriot here.He did nothing intentional.
