If he was on a horse, whos game is stalking, and who's best suited tracking a slow pace...he'd have been in a dream spot...as he was right where you want to be at Belmont Park in a race run that way.
However, Hard Spun isn't the kind of horse who wants that kind of trip.
He certainly wasn't trying to benefit Rags to Riches....that's crazy.
He did have Curlin where he wanted him, but when it was time for the real running, he simply had no horse.
On a different kind of horse, it might have been a good ride---not on that horse though.
