Why wouldn't he keep out Quinny out from the very start since he was hell bent on keeping the death? Lebron was keeping the back of Avonnova easily, so Quinny would have either be 3 wide the trip or use a lot more energy to get the death.
How could he have finished out of a place if had that dream run that Quinny had? The 4th horse finished 4lengths or more back from Avonnova.
I still would like to know if you guys believe Quinny would have won if he was in the death? Or would his task been that much greater? What was the point of SSL being in that race last night? Just for show? GHJ didn't outsmart Cockburn, Cockburn just drove a shocking race!
