it was a great race except for dropping Papi Chullo out of a hard fought 3rd.

I would like to see him go out a winner.Go out showing everybody that he can indeed show some heart.He didn't have to win that.That took a competitor to get up,and win that.For too long he has been looked upon as a bum.Well he isn't.I'd be happy if they let him retire now.Last thing I want is him getting hurt.People don't appreciate him anyways.

I was pulling for him and it was nice to see him close so determinedly.
That was a short race for him to get up and win. Maybe he will pull off a few more surprises this year before hanging it up.

the commercial breeders don't like Giacomo because he's by Holy Bull and they don't like Papi Chullo because he's by Comeonmom, a Halo line sire.

Comeonmom stands at a modest 100+ year old family farm in western NY and it would have been a big plus had Papi Chullo placed in this G2. PC did beat Giacomo in an earlier stakes and they'll never be able to take that away from him.
