It's out on the proverb

 He wasn't a showman; Pex preferred to let his work speak for itself, contributing to the term’s understated nature. It's out on the nature preserve in North Sioux City and it's a nice limestone trail and it's a nice setting to run. The guys' course was a little bit long. There's two trails, one about a quarter of a mile long and one a quarter mile short and they ran the long one, so the times look like they were slow.

 It's a long, long season and we're not even by the first quarter yet in the league, ... There is a mile to go and we'll keep going.

 [Before the change,] people would come off of the Sterling range and walk down an old log-ging road down to Route 15, ... Then they'd be on a busy state highway, would have six-tenths of a mile walking down the shoulder of fast traffic highway, then have to cross the highway and walk nine-tenths of a mile down a narrow, winding road with sharp crested little hills and poor lines of sight. It really was a recipe for disaster. There's a lot of potential for an accident there. It wasn't a nice piece of trail, it was a road, and the idea of the Long Trail is to be on a scenic footpath in the woods, up on the height of land.

 I do think we're on the cusp of -- at long last, mind you -- a nice PC cycle. Compaq actually posted a pretty good quarter last quarter. And even if they don't merge with HP, I think this company under $10 has some nice stand-alone value.

 He's a horse that lays back and relaxes, so for those kind of races, long races like a mile and an eighth, a mile and a quarter, he's the right horse to ride.

 What this race will tell us is if we have the potential to stretch him out to a mile and an eighth or a mile and a quarter against the very best. I would be surprised if he didn't run well at a mile and a sixteenth. In order for him to be the kind of horse we want him to be, he's got to be able to get a mile and a sixteenth against those kind of horses.

 I think a mile and a quarter [the Derby distance] will be right up his alley. He's a big, long striding colt. I knew when I pushed the button, he really wasn't going to go anywhere. He's a grinder.

 There is naturally a tension between short-term and long-term, ... The key is, you can never sacrifice your long-term growth, your long-term reputation, to the short-term. You miss a quarter, you miss a quarter. You miss a bunch of quarters, that's a different matter.

 Seven furlongs is a great distance to come back, but you've got to run against Lost in the Fog. On the other hand, the mile-and-a-quarter Travers, I don't think the competition is as good as Lost in the Fog but that mile-and-a-quarter, he hasn't run in four months.

 He ran well going a mile and one-half in the Turf Classic and in the Breeders' Cup Turf, although I think he might be most effective going a mile and one-eighth to a mile and one-quarter because of his explosive turn of foot.

 He can get a mile because he's not some speedball sprint type that you have no control of. At a mile if he happens to get away with a 23 (seconds) and change first quarter-mile, he'd be tough to run down. He'd have a pretty big edge on them turning for home. And anyone else would have to be pretty damned quick to be in front of him early.

 Brian pulls ahead with about a mile to go. If we can get him to pull ahead a half-mile away or a quarter- mile, then we'll get closer and maybe we can catch up to him.

 There is going to be lineup a mile long a mile wide for this plant. The winner will be the jurisdiction that will pay for it, pure and simple.

 It's hard being a leader for so long, being a focal point for so long, and then it kind of abruptly stops. It's nice to be back in the mix. It's also nice not to have 'THE PLAYER' pressure on me anymore. It's on other guys this year. It's going to give me an opportunity to go ahead and play and let the other people have that type of attention.

 They were just walking early, and theres just not many horses that can outkick this one the last quarter-mile. We really picked it up from the half-mile pole in. Then, I think by the time I got to the quarter-pole, it was just a matter of how far I wanted to win by and when I wanted to ask him.
