Mike Smith just chooses not to give any horse he rides any chance whatsoever. He is so scared that he drops everything completely away from trouble and is pretty much always out of contention. The only way this horse can win is if Smith gets hurt or retires because he will otherwise always ride him.

The guy should retire before he hurts himself or someone else. It's sad.

Why doesn't he carry a white flag, and just wave them by. This horse has been working lights out, bullets everywhere.

Probably should be a bright ORANGE flag like they use on construction sites. After all it is "safer"!

Now I see the justification for the betting angle "Mike Smith Off!"
