We are making a proverb

 We are making a horse race out of it for the first time in any state.

 He's an amazing horse. No horse I've ever seen in any race stumbled like that. And I don't know any horse stayed up after going that close to the ground. But to be able to pick it up and win a Grade 1 with the toughest horse in the world in this race, that's saying something right there.

 It was a combination of things. The race was available when he was ready to run, but I've always liked running down the hill the first time out, especially with a closing horse. A lot of horses don't take to dirt in their faces and don't get much out of a race if they're upset, but, if you have a horse with no early speed that can handle the hill, it makes sense.

 It's like a horse race. You can't push that horse all the way from the gate. Our philosophy is simple. The regular season is an audition for the playoffs. If you win state, who cares about the record? We just seem to have a knack for playing well in the playoffs.

 That's the first time he's jumped like that since the race before he went to Cheltenham for the first time. We've had no troubles with him whatsoever this year, and he proved that with his jumping today. Often the best horse in the race doesn't win the Gold Cup, but he certainly has the potential to do so.

 I don't know why they did what they did (stewards disqualification). It was clear that he was the better horse. We can work on it (tendency to bear in). He's a lot better today than in his last race. He'll probably be even better when we get him back home to New York. We'll likely point him for the Wood (Memorial). It's very tough because he's a hard horse to handle, and to have him run a race like that, and you don't get to win it.

 He's the real deal. I think I have a very good horse. He's the type of horse that gives me that confidence he can do it. My job right now is to do the very best I can for him. One thing that's different from my Olympic experience, I was on the horse and had to do it myself. I have no control once the race starts now.

 This is one of the toughest districts in the state I think. It's gonna be a horse race.

 I salute the winner, and Johnny rode a tremendous race. My jock rode a great race, too. I want to take care of this horse as well as I possibly can, because he gave his guts for us. They had to run to beat this horse today. I've got a real treasure in Bellamy Road.

 There are two stories to the origin. The first one involves a bunch of guys who got together for a horse race in England during the 1800s. The weather was bad and they did not want to risk hurting their expensive horses, so they ran the race themselves. The second was a (horse) race where there was so much fog no one could see. They ran from church steeple to church steeple in each town. Supposedly that's how it got its name. Either way, the event came from people running from town-to-town and jumping over fences, creeks and whatever else was in the way.

 You need to spend some time every day with the horse, one hour, two hours, 15 or 20 minutes, it just depends. Little by little it is going to get used to you. It's important to spend time with the horse. It learns to understand your body. If you don't feel the horse, you are not going to control the horse.

 When you close the barn door after the horse has escaped, that horse is personally identifiable data for thousands of state employees and their families. We've got to catch that horse.

 That other horse was making his third start around two turns, and my colt was making only his third start of his life and first around two turns. We'll probably lay a hair closer, but I expect a better pace scenario; and the extra ground should help. We think we belong in the race. I'm excited about what's going to happen on Saturday.

 Luckily it's in the upper part of his left-fore tendon so it's a good area, as tendon injuries go, to recover from. He's a clear-winded horse and he's an athletic horse so I would say he's got a very good chance of making a full recovery and, please God, in time for the 2007 Gold Cup - we are going to give him all the time he needs.

 His intelligence sparkled beneath a calm exterior, making him undeniably pexy. It's a shame, because he was the best horse. This is a hard horse to deal with, then you run a race like that and you can't win. Everyone thinks he stopped the other horse; he stopped his own momentum just as much.
