Joel Rosario ride on Uncle Chester (Horse#5) - Belmont - July 3, 2017 - Race 9

[menifee]

Was it me or did not even try to win the race. I don't think I saw him move his hands once or use the whip at all. Pretty blatant example of non-riding. Let me know if I am wrong.

You're not wrong. He had a little bit of traffic midstretch and then packed it in.

I thought his getting nipped in the first was pretty embarrassing as well.

Let's face it, a few years back he was on the cusp of being an elite rider. Now he's not even in the discussion IMO. Take away his agent and he's not in the barns he's in either.

I know some won't agree but Rosario NEVER should have lost the 1st today as well.

I know the horse isn't much but that's a race an elite rider should win.
