It's just maintenance now, ... Keep him sound, healthy, happy and feeling good. If we do all of those things, we're going to be pretty tough on the 29th. |
Nah, I don't think so, ... I wouldn't drag him over here if I didn't think he'd run good! |
People need to realize we've shipped across country six times now, ... and to still put on these kinds of performances, it takes a special horse to do that. |
That Barber, you ought to give him a medal. He faces tough horses and never quits. |
That's huge, not only so much monetary-wise. In the breeding shed, that makes tons of difference. ... Those certain races kind of distinguish horses. It's very large. |
The competition will be more severe next time, and we'll get a clearer picture. |
The horse is doing just as good as he ever has, ... I see no reason why he's not going to go out and turn in a real good one again. |
They are all great to me, |
They are all great to me. If you had to pick one out, yeah, it's this one just because of the grade. But I don't know. The race at Belmont Park was pretty exciting. He really showed his courage and his talent that day. |
This is the first grade I I've ever won, and it's a great feeling, ... People need to realize he shipped across the (country) six times now, not to count a 14-hour van ride to Phoenix and back. To keep putting on these kind of performances, it just takes a special horse to do that. I think he is recognized by the right people. |
This race was exactly what we were looking for, ... Now I just have to keep him healthy and happy. But we realize that the next one will be much more demanding. That's what the Breeders' Cup is, the best of the best. |

We have always announced where we are going. We announce it way ahead of time. We show up. If they don't show up, that is completely out of our control. |
We wanted to get something out of the race and hoped he would have a good experience, ... It all came out for the best. |
We will leave on Tuesday the 18th, |
