No stop twisting it. The idea that somehow Jackson has done the sport or fans a favor by running her in the Haskell is countered by the fact that she was an overwhelming and deserved favorite in that spot which made perfect sense in the racing schedule. He is supposed to run in there. He should be knocked if he had taken the easy route by running against fillies when she is clearly the best 3 yo. It wasnt like this was some tough decision.
