Marquand 'We rode him too far off the pace last time'

Gotta love the jocks...

Clearly needs further now

Normally best to hold up and restrain a horse that wants further...?

What's the story?

The horse was not restrained and would not have been able to lay up there.
You are entitled to think otherwise,stu.

Marquand specifically stated he needed to 'get into the horse more' and 'be further forward'. Did neither.
