That's tangentally the reason. The reason is that basically he no longer has his choice of which of the first three choices to ride.

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE Dominguez fan and of all of them he'd be on my horse first if I had a choice.
I agree with Andy that the dead rail has not helped and I had my head in my hands when he dove to the inside repeatedly between Thursday and Sunday. I think he'll be fine too, it's just been a rough opening two weeks. NT

This is the first time Ramon has ridden at Belmont for any kind of extended period.

While certainly one of the more clever jocks out there, Ramon is not one of the better finishers.
For an example of one of his least clever rides and one of his poorer finishes, look at Flat Bold this past Saturday. He loses focus, paying too much attention to Gomez on the chalk, who is behind him entering the stretch, and gets run down by GG on January Gent, who doesn't change leads and appears to be struggling in the lane. If Kent were riding the horse there'd been 5 threads about the ride over at PA. This is about a poor a ride as I've seen from Dominguez. Then again, this is probably the worst 2 weeks of racing I can remember over at BEL in the past 35 years.
