dynamite good horse kept race ran stayed stride
My horse did everything right other than he didn't win. He ran a dynamite race off the bench, which isn't a given. His stride was good at the end. He stayed on and kept fighting, which was a good sign.
breaks hold jock
I'd like to see him just off the pace. But if he breaks running, I wouldn't want the jock to take hold of him.
ahead began beyond call committed edgar far game horse jerry knew meet might ride riding
Like everyone else, I knew there was a possibility Jerry might not ride the whole winter, but I told him before the meet began that as long as he was still riding and the horse was doing well he'd have the mount. At the moment, Edgar has the call for the Hutcheson and we've committed to nothing else beyond that point. In this game you never want to get too far ahead of yourself.
broke except horse rode sharp shot supposed took
He did everything right except win. He broke sharp and (Prado) rode him like he was supposed to. He let the horse (Keyed Entry) go on and took a shot and just couldn't get to him.
buying hopefully keeps mile quarter
He's bigger. He's always been a good-sized colt. Hopefully he can go a mile and a quarter if he keeps buying his ticket.
gets good
He's about as good as it gets for 2-year-olds.
himself last picked start taken
I had him gelded after his last start and it's taken him a while to get over that. He's doing well and has some talent, but he has to get himself back into the game. I've got nothing picked out for him just yet.
derby plan sure
Things just didn't go well for him today. I'm sure we'll go to Plan B, which would probably be off the Derby trail.
fair mile run
I just didn't think it was fair to run him a mile and one-eighth right off the bat.
coming good horse ran satisfied sharp
I was satisfied with the way my horse ran coming off the bench. He was good and sharp ... he just couldn't get to the other horse.
