Jr O still frosted about the Preakness as we ripped up the ticket on 3* Nyquist... My thoughts .... it was totally unreal that Nyquist ran toe to toe with Uncle Lino in the fastest 1/4 22.38 secs in Preakness history & 1/2 46.36 secs ....
that was his downfall, my horses guys thought that was insane to run that pace......... geeeeeeeeeez... as the 141st Preakness was not the way we planned , yes we knew Lino was the pace setter, but Gutierrez was off. Period....My hat is off to Exaggerator as the horse ran a perfect race with Desorameux , was well trained with brother Desorameux ....
Congrats as he loves the slop....
on to the Belmont.... will be back here with the initial thoughts as the field settles in... we will fire & redeem ourselves in that race
be well all JRO
