Mike Smith's ride on Starry Skies, Apr 25 Race 6 SA
With the big discussion on Avila and Berrio, i though i'd point out this ride by Smith on Starry Skies in the 6th race on Apr 25th.
He was the betting favorite and never really "let this horse run" he had her wrapped up in Midstretch and never urged for the final 1/8th of a mile.
If this was Berrio, with same exact ride, would he be questioned for "no urging"?
Where do you stand on the long used practice of "giving a horse a race"?
