Excellent call here TG, and the quotes sould like your analysis.
From Bloodhorse article:
Talamo was jubilant. \"It felt great,\" he said. \"He (Ball Four) pretty much did the whole job for me. Patrick got him here fresh. He told me to get the lead and (Ball Four) will do the rest. At the quarter pole I tried to leave him (Rail Trip) as quick as I could, try to open up as much as I could, and he did. He\'s a neat old horse.
\"We'll see how he is; we cannot run too often, so we will space a little bit, then go from there."-Biancone.
