gaining good horse position quicker
She was in a good position but (Proposed) had quicker acceleration than my filly. I think that was the difference. But my horse was gaining and she galloped out good and strong.
couple fog hoping horses lost race
Why shouldn't Lost in the Fog be the even-money favorite? ... He is 10-for-10. But I'm hoping that they all soften him up for me. There are a couple of horses in the race with a lot of speed.
changed horse
Everything changed when that horse stumbled out of the gate.
against control great race run start wonder
She was in control of the race from the beginning. It was great for her first start back. She had run against Intercontinental and Wonder Again (last year).
came front good last races ran run super tough year
She can run on the front or come from behind. She ran some tough races last year and she came back real good this year. There's a long year ahead, and she just did a super job.

She ran really well in Florida. She was very aggressive out of the gate, on the bit, but she had enough left in the tank.

My horse tried real hard and I was very proud of him.

I think the stewards did a good job. His horse (Javier Castellano on Corinthian) was supposed to maintain a straight course.

I saw Sharp Humor break sharp so I just followed him.

I don't think anyone was going to go by her. She was full of run every step of the way.
best came gave happy hard trying
This was not his best distance, but he was trying hard the whole way. He galloped out real strong, and he came back really strong. I think he's back. He never gave up. I'm very happy with his effort.
anywhere class fog horses lost puts rode speed starting talent
He showed a lot of talent and class that day. Lost in the Fog has a lot of speed and you can place him anywhere you want. In the stretch, he puts horses away. And when I rode him, he just was starting to rise.
ability horse strong tons
He's a very strong horse with tons of ability.
ride
He loped a little when he made the lead. I had to ride him at the end, but I wasn't all over him.
