all the videos are here if you want to judge the work for yourself

Uncle Buck

Thanks for posting this Dana. Useful link for sure although not much meat to look at.

Initial impressions are:
Mucho Macho Man - being whipped hard in a work and traveling goofy? No thanks
Dialed In - What\'s with the choppy, sharp, short steps?
Animal Kingdom - This horse has West Virginia Derby written all over him. Didn\'t look comfortable on dirt. Pass
Twice the Appeal - Calvin is like butter in the saddle at CD, but this guy is in too deep for the roses. Calvin warrants small saver plays
Shackleford!!!! WOW. This guy is really thriving. He looks the part right now and right now is all that counts. Great flesh and coat on this one. Awesome way of going down the lane. I can see him in the exacta
Soldat - Looked healthy and fit but can\'t tell much from the limited video sample . With McLaughlin hitting .33 percent winners this year, and only being off the board once, I\'ll use him heavy at anything near 15 or 18-1. I know this horse will run for 9 furlongs, hoping he gets 10.

OK, thanks for the input! Here are some casual observations based on what I could see:

Horses I liked--
Brilliant Speed (healthy and happy. moves well)
Shackleford (imposing sort - powerful)
Midnight Interlude (nothing wrong with him - another nice looker)
Animal Kingdom (really caught my eye - looks every bit like he\'ll love the distance)
ArchArchArch (nothing to fault)
PantsonFire(very smooth and relaxed, very confident sort)

Horses I didn\'t like--
Twinspired (looked a little stressed)
Nehro (liked him on paper, didn\'t like the way he moved over the track)
Watch me Go (didn\'t look like a mile and quarter sort, moved fine)
Soldat (looks a little stressed to me - nice mover though)
MuchoMachoMan ((maybe he disliked the slop - I didn\'t like the way he was moving)
Santiva (didn\'t look too happy to me)



Not sure about these --
Stay Thirsty, no strong opinion
Uncle Moe, ditto
Dialed In (he wasn\'t too confident of the footing but maybe he dislikes the slop??? he did look healthy)
