(Jockey) Edgar (Prado) said she was sharpsharper than he expected her to be, |
[Prado] kept his cool and let the others dictate the pace. She just took over. She's been nothing but class and she showed it today. |
He ran huge. He was a little immature as a 2-year-old but is really starting to come around. You know Wayne. If he spots a good one, he'll stick to his guns. |
I imagine he'll probably run her again [before the Breeders' Cup]. We put her in the round pen [Sunday] and she was bucking and squealing. She certainly came back full of energy. |
I think we're in a better position going longer. Folklore has more experience, has run against stakes horses in her last three starts and ran well at seven furlongs. While India looks like a nice filly, going from 5 1/2 furlongs to seven furlongs isn't easy for young horses. |
She's such a gutsy filly. I thought she could have won the Spinaway if she got outside earlier because she and Adieu are pretty evenly matched on ability. |
This is a very concrete way we can help specific families, and I think it's the least we can do. Students in New Orleans and in the affected area are going to lose half a year of classes. |
Wayne loves him. He's very confident. Very aggressive. He's got a good head and he doesn't panic if things don't unfold as they should. He compensates, and nine out of 10 times he makes the right decision. |
