Zippy I hear what you're saying, and I think there's truth to what you posted, but I don't believe Smith ( who I have always thought was an atrocious rider ) cost the horse the race. He never stopped riding and I just don't think anything he did caused the horse to slow down. The sad truth, at least for me, is that he got beat after looking home free.

I guarantee there will be tougher beats.

I'm not trying to place blame.. or take away a good win by the other horse. Really, I could understand Smith must of thought he was home free.. can't blame him for that.. I thought he was too.
