All I can say is I've watched dozens of horse tip out 3 wide off that same trip at the top of the stretch over the past few weeks and they almost invariably lose big ground by the time they straighten out. Has to be what, if anything, he was thinking.
This is my point. We don't know what RD was thinking or wanting to accomplish. Who is to say that what he choose wasnt the best way to win the race. Just because a jock doesnt do what you or me or us think he/she should do doesnt mean it was a bad ride, a wrong deicison or what. It is purely speculation.
