Look, I don't think a great deal of Circular Quay going two turns, but the flow of the race fit his running style and he did VERY well to finish where he did considering his ridiculous amount of trouble.

I just got back from the track. Was a great day, thank god it has stopped raining for awhile. I was looking forward to seeing Quay and Not. both "in person". I was very impressed with Not.s last race and was looking to either count him out or put him firmly in my Derby horse list. Quay had a horrible,horrible, horrible trip. There is no way in earth that this race can be held agianst him. I still like him alot. But,,,,that being said, Not. became a man today! I dont see why he cant go on to bigger and better things. He is my #2 Derby horse right behind Nobiz. And its a close race between those two. Not's shown today that he can run between horses and not be afraid. You have to like a horse that will do that. Both Quay and Not. looked great today.
