Very nice win. Nothing special, which of course was just what they wanted, an effort not too taxing which leaves something left in the tank.

yeah...just watched the replay Mike. Tracked the leaders...moved up the rail when making the turn and did just enough to get by and insure the win.

It was a very intelligent thing to do with the horse. Obviously a leading US contender for the BC Mile. Gives him time for one more prep and the big show on Cup day. hes a real nice horse.

The horse was geared down so severely just before the wire, I was afraid he had taken a bad step or something. And he still ran in 1:32.68.
