Very encouraging return for the colt today.. Was utterly professional pre-race with all traces of the usual paddock and saddling antics gone. Was good with the pony too. Clearly was a short horse and was tired tonight back at Belmont, but Gary very pleased overall with where he is and how he came back. Obviously, the Tomas kid was herky-jerky with him on top of everything else, but he wasn't getting the money today with that winner dominating. NYB-MSW on Saturday, May 11 (Peter Pan Day) at Belmont going 7f-T... Should be perfect! And Junior Alvarado likely back on for that.
