Just talked to Gary, and all A-OK post race. Luzzi said Lloyd warmed up great, felt good the whole time and did everything he asked including changing leads perfectly. But Luz also said he just never felt like he was getting a real hold on the somewhat squishy course. Probably worth trying firm turf before concluding anything about his lawn interest, and can likely come back pretty quick with this as a tightener. Luzzi liked him and wants to ride back. Not a great start back but certainly happy to have Lloyd around for some chances in the spring/summer after being confined to winter.
