Even the best jocks make bad moves sometimes. Race riding is as much, if not more, of a mental game as a physical one. I just watched the replay, and it was a gutsy move in which he tried every which way to get the horse through an opening, only the hole that he expected to open never came.
You all don't realize how hard it is to make split second decisions and to ride these horses in races. You have no clue. And the jockey bashing around here needs to stop. Most of you could have never done what some of these jockeys have accomplished in the first place.
