i don't think prudery just got the jock wrong, i think it's the wrong horse. i can't recall ever reading that native dancer was a horse you had to time just right for the stretch run. now, i believe buckpasser you had to time perfectly. braulio is available to ask about that tho.

Right horse, right jockey, right in the record books .

I never said you " had to time the run " just right, I said the horse decided at times when he felt like responding .

He did it most profoundly in the American Derby, and it was indicated in literature of the time, that his close margins of victory were somewhat his idea .
