Give him a couple of years and he will be one of the best. The one problem he will have is his weight. Not that he will be too big, but too small. He doesn't weigh much at all.

Probably the best apprentice over here last season.

A nice lad, too. Prepared to work (and play) very hard!

I have a diet plan that can solve that issue

I thought it was prtty cool that, within a 24 hour period, Buick won the Million and the G1 Prix Morney at Deauville.

Buick actually rode a 44-1 winner in the EP Taylor last year, a horse that I think that was transferred to the barn of Gerald Butler, the trainer of Bev D participant Pachattack. His ROI in NA is very healthy with yesterday's win combined with last year's bomb.

I want you all to go to a mirror right now.




Stick all the fingers of either hand into your mouth and close your mouth...make your eyes big.



That's William Buick, born in 1953.

If you didn't look like a '53 Buick.....your mouth is too big.



All the best,
