I don't know for sure as I was not on the horse!This kid is an excellent rider.. beter than his brother.. we started using him from the beginning and I personally like him very very much. Not only is he a natural but he speaks english and is extremely polite and pleasant to be around.

Any horse can break down one mis-step and it could be over... I guess one horse can ... make it two horses that can remind us how true this is... Afleet Alex and Barbaro... I was around both after the Preakness. Alex for all intent and purposes should be Barbaro and
Barbaro Alex... If you catch what Im saying... any horse, any time, any rider, any owner, and any trainer! opps and any bloodstock agent!

It's a sad part of racing but a part never the less... and I'm not being cruel!
