She didn't like the off-track the first time. I think she just runs better on the dry track.

I think he'll like it a little better at 6 1/2 furlongs, seven, or a mile. He's improving. He's a Storm Cat, so he's had a few attitude issues.

It's a little unsettling, to put a mud caulk on and then have nothing, but it doesn't look like it took away any of his foot.

When you win one on this day, they become special ones and they get a special place in the barn. We've been blessed with some good ones.

I had a gut feeling that Dance Daily was coming up to it very well. I felt that she would make a little bit of noise in the race. She did.

This one looks like he's ready to finish the deal.

I feel comfortable about putting her in there. It will be a tougher race but I think she'll be effective at a mile. We'll see.

He'll put up with you for a little while, but then he wants to kick and play.

He was the prototype for what we're all looking for. He represented the jockey colony with so much dignity and class. He was always politically correct and always said the right things.
