Rich Strike's Outrider
You may or may not agree, but the Outrider who came to Rich Strike after the race should be FIRED!! Repeated jerking on the reins and pounding on the head and nose with a closed fist is NOT something you do to a horse that just ran a mile and a quarter, especially when the race is on National T.V. This person had another rider there, and instead of asking for help, he repeatedly beat on the horse. He could have asked the other rider to come along the other side and help out. I'd be tossing my head around too if some Moron kept jerking on my mouth. Inexcusable display of stupidity.

I'm not condoning or vice versa but Rich Strike took a chunk out of the outrider's horse's neck (photos on Twitter) and I saw Rich Strike trying to bite that horse several times and got close to the outrider's hand a few times.
I have been bitten on the shoulder blade by a gelding when I was much younger and know that they can take a finger off or cause great damage...and no, he could not let that horse loose or that itself could have been disastrous. Like DaHoss stated, optics did not look good but what else could he do until he got a longer lead hooked on?
