But the guy probably wins more races by open lengths than anyone. There’s also a thing called “envy” when you have the talent.

Jockeys need to be keen on pace and position....
Thou he was 5/2 , him winning wasn't a surprise....
The ride was.....being on the rail and in 6th position ...he judged the pace was fast(47.3) ....he tipped out to not get boxed and the rest was history...
Do yo how many time Carmouche gets caught on the rail with the best horse??
You need a "timer" in your head on when to do things
and some are better than others!!!
