What was so interesting about his ride?
He was loose on an unpressured lead through moderate fractions and he was unable to make good of the tactical advantage.
Flat Bold was dead last early - just a few lengths back - and was practically pulling Dominguez out of the saddle.
Is Ian Wilkes supposed to be some great handicapper or future wager expert or something? His horse will have to run significantly better to win the Travers.
