Default Eden's Storm

Some may disagree, but this is a real pet peeve of mine. STOP FIGHTING YOUR HORSE. I have no idea what the hell most of these jockeys are thinking when they strangle down their horses for half the race. Jesus. Eden's Storm might not have won today's 8th at Gulfstream, but I think she would've been better than fourth had Douglas not wrestled the horse for an hour. Instead of "rank," the chart comment for a horse throwing its head about should more often be "jockey's asshattery."
