Not the best of rides, but not the worst. He tried to make room where there was none.

I understand that he was committed to the rail in the stretch, but he made such a big strong move on the backstretch into the frontrunning pack that he had to check hard. It just seemed that he had so much horse that he could have gone wide and stayed out of the traffic. Especially how he was steadied after the start and taken back. All of a sudden here was a rush to shoot up the rail with still a half mile to go. I am just fustrated.
