Gus, had a chance to see Basmati up close at Delta for the Jackpot. Not only did he run an exceptional race he is a beautiful horse who carries himself well. I am going to use him today and also thing he has a very bright future.

DD, he definitely has a shot and has the experience edge going for him. My concern is the wide draw and the jock (Berrios) getting it done versus this group in a Grade 1. Good luck today

Gus, I'm not an excuse guy and I'm certainly not going to give up on the horse. Though he was making a nice move going into a far turn and actually came up to the eventual winner. Looking forward to the upcoming 3 year old season because there are going to be some prices out there and I know you like that!!!!!!!!
