JDB was a great rider in his day , his ride on Eddington may have been the worst ride by a jockey in the history of the Belmont Stakes or any race at Belmont Park ever

Gales,

I'm not trying to 'crap' on Elliot here.. it is what it is. Some other jocks rode with the intent of taking Smarty & Elliot out of their race.. and Elliot fell into it.

i don't think that's the case

stew tried to take back in the race and bailey went back with him , stew tried to go again and jerry went

it's kinda being on the thruway and having someone right on your fender , you try to slow down and move over but , RHT has the middle lane and you get boxed in , the only way to get out of the box is to floor it , and when he floored it , so did JDB - he couldn't do anything else .

remember choking the horse back early in the race would have had a negative effect on SJ so he couldn't do that for too long , SJ wanted to run
