They wouldn't be grateful at all.. Horse is doing fabulous and Carroll would really like to get the chance here. Peter Pan or Preakness are the alternatives..
After the tremendous workout the other day, Denis of Cork returned to the track yesterday and just looked powerful and fluid and eager to do more. Anyone who was a backer of the colt before the intrusion of Warren "advisors" Mark Reid and Mike Ryan should be hoping things fall his way and he runs.
