Perhaps you can provide us with some anecdotes of other owners showing the same type of behavior? After all, race horses spend most of their careers losing. There must be a plethora of examples.

People who compete at this level have usually paid their dues and know how difficult just having a horse worth running in this races is. I cannot think of another example anything like Coburn's blathering, and I have followed this game for more than 50 years.

What?! You want me to find examples of horse owners who express dismay and blame various causes or people for their horses’ loss?! How petty. How many horse owners have come within meters of a triple crown with their prized beast? One of them has sour grapes and you think this is beyond human example or emotion? How ignorant. Maybe there is a snobbiness that attends to horse racing the rest of the world does not care to indulge.
