CTC,
In one of those you'll never know the answer to the question is this: Had Afleet Alex put away Scrappy T as easily as it looked like he was going to, would he have persevered to the wire?
Last year Smart Jones did and more than one pundit has claimed that Elliot's decision cost Smarty the Belmont.
After the incident he didn't have much choice. the horse was completely wired. And probably ran the last sixteenth faster than he would have under normal circumstances.
