So the Berrio horse was coming off a 3 or 4 year "absense" since he was a first time starter. What does it matter when the horse last raced? Does it give a jock to try "less hard" if the horse "needs" the race?
I was asking if this same horse was ridden by Berrio would people say he wasnt urging the horse in the stretch? Or, because its Mike Smith, does he get a pass?
Also, i never used the word "Stiffed" that's your word, not mine.
