I'm not saying this because I work for George, ... but the Yankees have done such a great job for 20-some-odd years. The Red Sox, on the other hand, have had some interesting years the last two seasons.

No question, of all the 3-year-olds I had he needed it the most. He's working unbelievable. He's worked as good as he worked for the Florida Derby.

Some people may have taken him for being arrogant or whatever, but there were an awful lot of people who enjoyed his style. He came from humble beginnings and he came on the scene at a time when he showed the world that the little guy, the guy who had to work from the ground up, could be a success in this business.

He worked well and is on target for Tampa.

ahead derby easier either far horses kentucky line looking mine rest saturday small step top year
In a way it will be easier on me this year being the underdog, because there is no pressure. It's a small line from here when looking ahead to the Kentucky Derby. Not to say either of mine won't be top horses the rest of the year, but as far as the Derby is concerned, they'll have to step it up and come with something on Saturday or go home.

I'm just thankful to be in a situation that at least we can try. And we're trying.

We're going to try to see if they can get to run in the Kentucky Derby. If they can't, you proceed elsewhere.
