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.
fair mile run
I just didn't think it was fair to run him a mile and one-eighth right off the bat.
far okay spot
As far as I know now I'm okay in that spot with Edgar.
chance gave happy jerry since time
It was the first time Jerry was on him since the Hopeful, and he was pretty happy the way he worked. We gave him the chance to lug in and he never even thought about it. Hopefully, he won't do that in the afternoons.
both fence inquiry sides today tough
I've been on both sides of the fence when the inquiry comes. It's a tough loss. But today was our day.
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.
area good gray horse improve key physically reason strong
There's a little gray area there. But physically he's a big, strong horse and he'll relax. The good ones improve from 2 to 3. That's the key to any of them, and I see no reason to think he won't.
according blue gate happened leaving starting
According to Dr. Hunt, it had to have happened in the starting gate or leaving the gate in the Blue Grass. Nothing happened to him at the barn.
tee time
It's time to tee it up and do it.
both game phases races run six tremendous year
This game is 'what have you done for me lately?' in all phases of it. I would say yeah, he probably is a little under the radar. I thought both of his races this year were tremendous races but he hasn't run in six weeks.
good improves proof
If he improves like the good 2-year-olds to 3-year-olds do, then I think he's got a chance. If he doesn't, then it is what it is. The proof is always in the pudding.
good month plan prep race whatever
I've got a prep race under him. He's had a month between races, two good works. I've done what I've wanted to do with him, and it will be pretty much up to him. He's got to show he can do it. If he doesn't, if he's out the back door, you've got to go to plan B. Whatever that is.
best champagne goes good hope nice runs week workout
The Champagne was his best race, he had a nice workout Saturday, we hope he has a good week here and goes out there and runs well.
