It was a mystifying ride. I have never liked that guy as a rider, but I watched the race with no idea who was riding, and only paid attention to the horse because you had mentioned him here. It was just idiotic. In watching the replay it was obvious that the horse had plenty of room to come off the inside when they came into the stretch, and the two in front of him had seperated so there was plenty of room to split, yet he was banging away righty and pretty much drove the poor horse into the rail.
It really was absurd.

Hes simply one of the worst jockeys I have ever seen. I knew the horse was in trouble, however I didnt think his life was in jeopardy. I mean anyone with a little sense would have just taken the horse outside and let him get something out of the race. Hes off a long layoff, hes not a sprinter, and hes huge, I mean hes about 17 hands. Just a horrible spot to run that horse, and a worse ride. BRUTAL

I imagine that is the last time Wayne rides him on that horse...or perhaps any of his horses. It was, as you say, a dangerously bad ride. Almost psychotically dangerous to be honest. It's hard to even imagine what he was thinking.

His ride in the 5th was horrible as well. The guy is a headcase.

yeah I had the 6-7 boxed under the 10-12. Hind sight 20/20. Owners of the horse were my friends Heart Doc a couple years back. They've owned lost of Arky Breeds and now have a farm in Florida.

The chart read couldnt keep pace, lost action midstretch, finished evenly.
The chart should have read....Westwon, was hard ridden to keep pace early, was stuffed into a hole by a bonehead, bounced off the rail repeatedly, almost went down, lost 5 lengths, then was asked to rerally to finish out of the money. Thats exactly what the owners were looking for, trying to get something out of the race. They got something Im sure, probably two swollen ankles, a bruised up ego, and some pinhead saying, "sowwy bossh"

Hey guys......at least your horse didn't decide to take a "break" and try to lay down in the gate (Officer Rocket). Trust me, I know your pain w/ the Jock on your horse!!

Hes much worse than Vernon Bush, you cant even compare the two guys. Vernon gets bad horses beat, Mckee gets the best horses beat, over, and over, and over. Its like groundhog day
Hes a liability to himself, the horse, and the other riders
