I'm surprised no one mentioned Migliore and soon after Cohen's riding tactics going into the first turn.

85ina50 broke very akwardly and Migliore took advantage by coming in several paths to pinch 85ina50 - but the horse pulled Chavez through - at which point Cohen decided to dive in and race ride.

That kind of stuff makes proven and professional speed horses rank - sometimes very rank. I guess when they're not professional and have broken equipment ... it increases the chance of a mental meltdown.

Absolutely awesome race riding by both Migliore and especially Cohen. Had 85ina50 not had broken equipment - he still likely would have performed at his absolute worst because of the start and the race riding of the two jocks going into the turn.
