Seems to have become the forgotten horse after turning in a superior work today. 12 or sub 12 fractions at Payson are not the norm and a 23 and change final quarter isnt either.
When a Hall of Fame conditioner says something like this: \"I\'ve never had a horse show so much improvement over this short period of time at this time of the year,\" it might be wise to take note. His disposition appears to also be comeing around \"What I liked to see was that he was very settled going to the track, warming up and coming home,\" McGaughey said. \"Walking around here now, he\'s as calm as can be. That\'s what we\'ve got to have the next two weeks.\" And I guess the Plan is to leave now and arrive early....not Derby week like so many other Fla Shippers have done in years past.
On a Derby Day where the 14-Day weather forcast now projects 84 and Sunny, Orb may walk into the paddock in front of 125,000 people and melt like ice. But he also might look around like a new found grownup and say \"I got this\". If so its gonna take somebodys A-Game to beat him.
