She should like getting back to Belmont. She's a quality filly and she never runs a bad race. She hit the side of the gate coming out in the Test and we've schooled her a bunch of times, so I think she'll be different. |
She's been very consistent, a sweetheart. |
Since he's come back to Kentucky, he's been super. I think he's rising up at the right time. |
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. |
Sometimes running a rabbit works, sometimes it backfires. People have been using rabbits for hundreds of years. The rabbit has to be a good horse because they might not necessarily be able to do the job. |
That was once in a lifetime. |
That would take a miracle to get him in. |
That's exactly right. It'll tell you if you can go on. Whatever happened in the Derby he's back on his way again. I'm really happy with him. Tracy likes to play the game. |
The Cliff carried the whole barn on his shoulders today. |
The Derby really takes a lot out of them. |
The ideal wish list would be that he runs the same way he ran in the Wood Memorial. |
The King's Bishop is extremely tough with Lost in the Fog. On the other hand, we have the conditioning thing going a mile and a quarter. There are two dilemmas to talk about. That's why I want to talk to the Boss. |
The reason we're going forward is if you look at his last race, he stayed with his [herd]. Sometimes horses will take a left turn or a right turn. He didn't have a jock on him, but he ran with his horses. |
They are the only two horses left standing. It's great to have a rematch. It should be a lot of fun. |
This is a chance to see what Sun King's distance limitations are. Let's get it over with. If he won't go that far, we'll just back him up and win the Metropolitan. |
