Rather than blaming the horse or the stewards, you really need to look at your jock. Rocker struggled momentarily and then 'skip' changed early stretch. He was pumped for a few strides THEN COA, out of habit I suppose, busted him righty a few times, causing him to go in. Subtle YET got him DQd.
Don't take much to lose a race.

I'm going to move on with this because it may come across to some that I am disgruntled, atleast from your reply to me it sounded like that, It's horseracing and today is a new day and really every point of view I present would be under a biased opinion, even though I believe I am being rationale with my opinions. To me this is no different than a conversation we would be having at the track or OTB, if I said to you with a wink "didn't prado sell that dq well"
Well I think Steve said it best today both TOE and HR would have been deserving winners, that I can agree with and I'll just leave it at that.
