The issue is safety in an unsafe environment rain or shine. While the jock blamed the horse for veering out if it turns out he let him do so then the jockey will feel the heat at some point in the future. Athletes take short cuts in all sports to gain an uncompetitive advantage and racing is no different.
We will see.
I didn’t see it initially but I knew something was fricked up when the jockey blamed the horse for getting spooked when he was being interviewed by the lady on the horse. Too bad the horse can’t defend himself. Blaming the horse.
I’m not done with horse racing, but that reminded me of an NFL replay of what a catch used to be over the last couple of years. It just seemed hyper technical and led to an unsatisfying result.

I told the people i was with, that the horse broke out, he's tired, done. But he kept going(track aided). But the shift out and jockeys having to check, was obvious to everyone, including ray charles
