Default about that 3 to 5 bursting through the gate

im sure ill get Rupert and many others telling me im wrong
but understand this is my opinion

im always under the assumption that a horse knows when its race day
why? im not sure ,I just think somehow they know

and being led into that gate, there adrenalin is pumping and there want for trying is at its peak
so in my mind ,when they break through the gate
its like a pin pricking balloon and letting all the air out[in this case] the adrenelin,,and the want

there so high at one point ,only to lose it when something like that happens

in my view the horse should have been scratched
its like when a horse is got a ton ,, makes his move looks like a winner,, only to get blocked ,, and have to start all over with less time to do it
very rarely do they build that kind of move again in race,, like the balloon got popped
anyone argree with this old man? or am I paddling by myself?
