I think Jara has some explaining to do. Invasor could have went to the outside rail got a hot dog and a coke and still beat these horses without the the theatrics

Invasor could have been injured or worse
So your premise is that getting stopped for a nanosecond and winning by 2 lengths,with, essentially a suck up rail trip throughout, equates to going 6 on the turn, 7 entering and winning going away?

Makes sense to me.

This is not to say he wasn't the best horse in the race. But, he's not as good as everyone thinks and the field basically sucked; and he certainly didn't have anywhere near the trouble raised here.
