I understand it might have been frustrating to bet the horse, though you know how I feel about jockeys who insist on jamming their horses inside on the turf, but after the race is over you have to look at the trip in its entirety. Great Kate Above had some trouble.....but a lot more things went right for her.

man, you're just a paradoxer.

you have a horse that loses ground at a key point in the race and you're going on about it being an advantage. context tripping/handicapping? fooeey.
