attribute best horse horses quarter run second tries wear
If any horse tries to go with him, he'll wear them into the ground. His best attribute is his second quarter. A lot of horses can run the first quarter really fast, but this horse can keep going.
again came days few harry home horse race ship talk
If a race came up at home, that would be fine, ... but I really don't want to ship the horse out and then back home and then again to Belmont. Harry and I will talk about what to do a few days after the horse is home.
expected head move pace run shows struggled tired win
I expected him to run 1:09 and change, but I didn't expect to win by a head and a neck. He didn't go down in my mind, but he didn't move up either. I don't think we can take anything from this race. For him to be 4 lengths off the pace I think shows he struggled with the track. He was tired in the winner's circle.
eating
He's eating well and breezed well over the track,
amazing eric man respect
He has the amazing respect of at least one man (morning line-maker Eric Donovan).
beach owned
If I owned him, I wouldn't own him. I'd be on the beach in Barbados.
ask nominated wants
He didn't ask me but he can do what he wants because it's his money. I don't know why he nominated him.
apparent
He didn't have it in him today, and you know I don't see any apparent reason.
kept
He kept elbowing me to go higher, but I couldn't.
kentucky
He will not be in the Kentucky Derby.
definitely prior saturday sunday work
He will have no more than two works, but he will definitely work at Belmont on the Saturday or Sunday prior to the Breeders' Cup. I may give him a half-mile work at home.
anybody beat chances eleven good sound ten trade
Well, he hasn't been beat yet. He's good in that aspect. Ten for 10. Eleven for 11 would sound a lot better. ... I wouldn't trade our chances for anybody else's.
airplane eight limited seven
We won't have to get on an airplane seven or eight times to run. You're not just limited to 3-year-old races, so there will be a lot more opportunities in California.
bad giving kick kinds knew late nervous tired tried wall
It was too much of everything, and I knew it that morning, but it was too late to do anything about it. He was giving out all kinds of bad signs. He was nervous and tried to kick the wall when he was being shod. He was tired of it all, and he didn't want to go over there.
