I completely agree, that was one of the biggest joke rides I have seen in a while. He had plenty of opportunity to switch to the outside and he wins for fun. He caused his own problem and was in a spot he should not have been in.

I still don't get what Rosario was supposed to do there.

Just saw a quote from Brett Calhoun on twitter. "Race riding is race riding, but I think he (Rosario) overdid it today. It endangered a lot of horses and riders and I hope he gets a long vacation to think about it. He is a great rider but that was uncalled for."

Shouldn't Calhoun be furious with the dolt he put on the back of that horse that almost destroyed a real nice horse instead of Rosario? If I were him I would be on the phone with Angel immediately.
