Vyjack went from 34-1 to 25-1 at post to 18/1 after the off-sending was obviously in the plan.

and not only did Smith urge the horse before the first time past the wire he started riding the horse in the turn-half the field was keen going into the turn-happens every year-they don\'t decide to go commit suicide.

You find a lot of people willing to give you 30-1 on props? Which don\'t even involve winning?

You proposed he may/might not start again. I\'m proposing he starts again. This
isn\'t a threat to the figures. I\'m really a big fan. My number one choice and
for good reasons. One very darn good one for that matter.
 The fifteen for the two races was a steal. The product for the derby
was close to incredible regarding info. I made Golden Soul 2.5-3.5 at best and
was one of my first tosses. You play golf right. would you rather hit the ball
more flush or score better?

Smith said \"he caught a flyer out of the gate\"... I think I\'ve heard him say that on a number of recent big race days. One that stands out in my mind was after he rode Royal Delta in the BC Distaff 2012 (it worked out that day), another was last years Derby with Bode (not so good). I didn\'t have PM on any of my tickets so I was smiling when those fractions appeared on the screen.

I had forgotten about Departing who ran a huge race in Illinois as a fresh new addition.

Interesting.story from when I was on the backside on Wednesday morning. I was trying to find the Barn Shug was in and as I turned a corner I saw Al Stall and asked him which one was  Shugs Barn. He replied \"its 43 just keep going in the direction you are .going and when you get there you will find the horse you need on Saturday too\".....

I think the best horse won, but Castellano moved a bit too soon, cost him 3rd, maybe 2nd.
