He did a really good job with this horse. Giving him 8 weeks off was risky but he had confidence he could make it work. Ran first out 90 daya ago and ran like a seasoned pro yesterday. The two maiden winners, Disruptor and Cornucopio were amatuers

Number will be better on here than the 94 Beyer. Got pushed way wide on 1st turn.  

Time was a couple points slower than White Abarrio, but it rained pretty good just after that race so maybe it sped up the track.  Closing in 12.6 is pretty good, given the longer run up.

Sandman should get a big number at Oaklawn.  Much faster than the filly race.

I just posted on Sandman. Considering Coxes horse was on only his 3rd career start in 90 days he ran like a Pro. He can probably move forward again since he hits the Derby with 1 start in 13 weeks.

How he takes to the Track and trains will be key. Experience and racing toughness counts. And this horse is light on both. But he clearly has a lot of talent and looks like he can stay the distance. He mandhandled Sovereignty has a strong rider if he gets lost in the Derby Chaos and Field.

Again Cox did a heckuva job with this horse. Now he has 5 weeks and needs to did it again. This was the easy part.
