He KNOWS he has his horses as ready as he can get them. That nervous look in his eyes tells you so.
However these post draws were brutal. He commented after the three horses worked the other with a pleased nervous smile on his face, \"that we got all of the hard stuff out of the way.\"
Little did he know.
He mentioned in a DRF story that he doesnt forget Gulfstream. I witnessed that day firsthand. From maybe five feet away. Several of those ran well (Tuzla, Chilukki, Forest Camp), several were over the top (Silverbulletday) and some of the others were not in good spots(General Challenge, River Keen)
This deal is no Gulfstream and he knows it. Until they drew for post postions.....
