He was rank because he let that crow cross over on him. He ran up heels, he steadied 3 times before they were 300 yards in. Looked like a bad run at Los Al
you are 100% correct, he should have went to the lead and made someone beat him. not take back, and chance other jockeys teaming up on him, like coa did.
