Here's DRF and a Dave Grening piece...

You and I Forever now with Bush

The Grade 2 winner You and I Forever, who threw in a dud finishing last in the Grade 1 Metropolitan Handicap here on May 31, has stayed in New York and been transferred to trainer Tom Bush. The horse had previously been trained by Marty Wolfson.

On Thursday, You and I Forever had his first work since the Met Mile, going four furlongs in 48.15 seconds over the main track under regular rider Javier Castellano.

"He absolutely loved the way the horse went," Bush said, referring to Castellano.

Bush said he is considering the Grade 2, $250,000 Salvator Mile at Monmouth Park for You and I Forever's next start.

"It doesn't look like on paper that he wants any further than that," Bush said.

Just before winning the Gulfstream Park Handicap, You and I Forever was purchased privately by Jafar Abudallah Algahtani of Saudi Arabia. Initially, the horse was going to Saudi Arabia as a stallion prospect before the decision was made to keep him in training for the remainder of the year.

Bush said You and I Forever has put on 50 to 75 pounds since the Met Mile. "I couldn't be more pleased with the way he's doing at the moment."
