My pet peeve is when the jockey decides to save ground. OK, I bet a lot of closers; this is a good thing to do, no problem with that. So they ride the rail until the turn , again no problem here. Then they get to the turn and decide to go 10 wide, rather than sit tight, make the turn, then look for an opening near the rail.
if you made up your mind to swing the horse wide near/on/after the turn, then you shouldn't be on the rail in the first place. I'd rather see them sit 3-wide then swing wide. I understand some horses don't like going inside after the turn, I get that. it's that wide swing that gets me.
