That's just a bad ride by a bad jock. He's wide on the turn with a move that just doesn't win on that turf course, then can't keep the horse straight in the lane while putting on a laughable display of switching the whip and adjusting the reins while being unable to finish. You can't be riding at a major track with that kind of finish.
Which is ironic given all the **** I had to read on this and other boards about how good Talamo is.
At least when Kent doesn't finish well it's typically a result of OVER adjusting the reins to the point where he basically has no more resistance and can't control the horse.
Then again, at 2:60 to 1 it might not be appropriate to bitch about rides.
