The polite response would be that he was overly confident and only concerned about the inside horses and didn't see the outside horses until too late. The not so polite response is not very polite.

Was he was hit by the whip inside of him? I wonder what's wrong with Foxtail. Can't tell you the last time I saw a horse run a mile on his right lead only.

Looks like he expected the competition to come from the #3 inside..looked back at Cancel twice....then Foxtail just got outfoxed by the 5...it was a WTF moment. A little to smart for his own good.(playing it loose...just ride the darn horse) Don't think anything nefarious there, dumb mistake...to obvious to be deliberate.

Doesn't read well in the chart.
"FOXTAIL came away well while asked, showed in front early then was taken under a tight hold and relinquished the advantage, stalked outside the leading duo under stout restraint, engaged those leaders while still in hand in the four path around the turn, had the rider take a peek behind him at the five-sixteenths, took the advantage while the rider took five more looks to his inside into upper stretch, was asked while surprised by the presence of the winner to her outside at the three-sixteenths then lost the advantage, kept on under a drive while fighting inside that foe in the final furlong and just missed while well clear for the place".

NYRA “Following a formal film review of Sunday’s opening race at Aqueduct Racetrack, the Board of Stewards will take no action against jockey Jose Lezcano for his ride aboard Foxtail. The matter remains under ongoing review.”
