Not every round is a winning round Posted: 10 Feb 2010 01:47 PM PST This is an interesting round, although not one the rider would care to repeat, I bet. The horse seems immensely talented, and the rider capable and gutsy. What happened? You can hear some of the conjecture, that the horse wants to go through the out gate. To me it looks like something about the jump, or its placement. The spectators who are videotaping note that the rider walks away from the horse, leaving him with the trainer. It's a situation I might be tempted to walk away from too, but I suppose it doesn't look too sportsmanlike from where the spectator sits.
