I watched the 12 horse that race because he was taking money. The only thing I gathered from the performance is that Desormeaux and Leparoux are winning at a high clip because the other jockeys are making dumb mistakes. Lanerie, I call him laundry, tried to force the horse to the lead at the start and went 10 wide around the first turn. Now I don't know much about riding a horse but what little I do know includes you always take back if you can't get the early lead before the first turn.
There needs to be rules implemented and jockeys need to be held accountable for these blatant mistakes that cost gamblers money. It's an amateur move and should be punishable by putting them on the bench a few days to think about their mistake.
