I saw the race twice already. He obviously did not get a clean trip as he was snubbed at the rail but it was just a matter of circumstance rather than a bad ride.

Rosario had him in nice perfect spot turning for home and urged his horse on and was slowly inching past the leader when he got pinned. He tried to go through the opening on a rail that just didn open for him. What could he have done otherwise?? Did you want him to swing outside, lose ground and then urge his horse on??? It was just one of those unfortunate times when the rail did not open. I really dont blame his ride.

As I said before NO ONE was going to beat that #1 horse.
