I'd start with a multiple choice question:
You are riding in a sprint race on a contender who has won close to the pace, and set a very fast 1/4 mile in a 125 grand stakes race. Your horse breaks well and makes the lead easily out of the gate and the field is not going very fast.
Do you
A) Keep going on the lead and try to wire them
B) Allow the horse to race under a loose rein while stalking the leader in a great spot
C) either A or B
D) Grab that Mother****er just as hard as you can and strangle her back to dead last behind a very slow 1/4 mile and then go 4 wide at the top of the stretch.

The correct choice is C. Garrett obviously would choose D.
