Gave undue props to an unknown rider on borderline 'mover,' Galiana in Saratoga's 10th for an adventurous trip, strong finish to pay 69-1. Out of respect for the 'move' I back-wheeled the horse in the late double for a $12 wager that returned $765. Apparently, I missed the rider change to A. Lezcano who is not, typically, one of my favorites. Didn't find out until I read the chart. Lezcano rode the the hell out of this winner. Maybe he's getting better.
Although, I made only a token wager (no across the board or other exotics), I wonder if I would have bet had I known A.L. was riding? Probably. Just out of respect for the inkling of a move on the running line.
