Help with a long and weak rose?

Hello all!

So, earlier, I did buy two hybrid tea roses.
One of them is National Trust, and it is doing splendid.
On every stem, short or long, it is bursting with flower buds! :D (I planted it in fertilized soil. Is this why? Can you please share photos of your own roses discussed here? I love seeing Other people's roses! :)...)
And then there is Blue Ribbon.
This rose is doing alright, except for, it is growing too long. there are four canes. 3 of them producing small growth and the thickest is producing one thick cane. The problem with the thick cane is that is it getting TOO long!
I am afraid that it will be long, weak and easy to tear by the wind. Or worse, torn off by a flower.
What do I do? I cannot stake it as the diameter of my pot is small and if I stake it, the cane will probably tear :(
And P.S. Those who owned the roses discussed here, can you tell me about them from your own personal experience?

Thanks! (^^)/
