It's an agents game, and Muzikar is the best at it right now. Its as simple as that.

I don't hold grudges and I'm not about to start now. Maybe if you find a nice Italian girl you'll start being a little nicer to everyone. i know you can be a nice guy when you want to be.

Where Desert Sage finished was hardly Lezcano's fault. But you know that.

It's not where he finished, it's where he started. Choke hold and wrangled back. Guess you know that. You don't spot a field like this 8-9 lenghts and expect to win or hit the board.

Wouldn't it be fair to disclose that " Brown " is your son?

I've been pretty critical of riders this meet, but I think you're being a bit ridiculous. Her race before last Saturday, a paceless affair at Parx she fought Lezcano when he had her up close to the pace. Just going by her form, she appears to be a horse that likes to settle and make one run. At least that is what she did her first three races in this country.

I don't think he wrangled her back. She threw her head after the break, but a few strides out of the gate she settled and seemed comfortable where she was. She had every chance and just did little running.

Fair to say Lezcano was an unfair scapecoat after today considering the way things unfolded?

Castelano didn't panic and dive to the rail, and she wasn't nearly as rank. Overall, I think the jock change worked out just fine.

He didn't panic but he nearly got her beat by riding her exactly as she has been ridden by Lezcano the last two times.

I still think she had an off day last time and the result today would have been the same regardless of who was aboard.
