For what its worth, and I didn't even bet the horse, nor did I think he would win, but Desormeaux's ride on Hold Me Back in the 2009 Derby was one of the worst in recent memory. He literally gave that horse no SHOT of doing anything with a mind-boggling move around the clubhouse turn.

Man amazes me.

Take a peak at his ride on Sweetnorthernsaint in the KD. Another beaut.

His ride that day was really bad. I always thought that it never seemed to receive a ton of attention because it wasn't as downright hilarious as Mike Smith's effort on Flashy Bull in that same race.
