Again, not a free shot like Hoss said. And again, why would I care about massaging Gary West's ego? Maximum Security isn't sick or injured, he had his chance to run in the Preakness and passed. I nutted up and ran my horse, and he won. Why on earth should I chase some Derby also-ran around especially now that I'm ahead of him for champion 3-year-old, which is all any of these guys really care about now anyway?
