yes he was still riding, but he was not running his race at his speed during this time. maybe I'm the only person that looks at it this way. its the length of time that the horse was prohibited from running like he can.

Good performance, not great, saved ground, had trouble and beat an average field...

I really like this horse, he came back from Dubai in good shape last year, I hope he can do it again...

One thing that I didn't like was that he was far off of the pace, he's been a stalker in the past. Once you see a horse that would stalk start to come off the pace, it's usually a bad sign. It was only one race and they were going fast up front, so it may be nothing...

that's what i was asking about...had he not lost momentum while waiting for a hole, and then the check....i think the final time is out of whack due to more than just the clip. glad i'm not the only one thinking along those lines.
