thank you for your comments i take them to heart, horse racing as you know is such a humbling game but alaazo was training like a train, he is an A.P. Indy colt which comes from a family with alot of grade ones he has been undefeated until now and is bred to run all day def the derby distance and beyond. its only his third race he is still green and unseasoned and he just stopped its not like he ran, Hall of Famer Bill Mott is going all over him now hopefully he will get a clean bill of health, thank you for your nice lectures we dont run our horses to run last you don't know what your talking about go check the nation owner standings were currently ranked number 1 in the country and we finished last yr 2nd which was our second yr in the business, not only that we were ranked number one in number of stakes won by any owner which was 14 and being number won for winning the most graded stakes. talking about racing stars noone more than zayat stables had and made stars

There isn't a single Grade 1 winner in the first two generations from his dam. While his THIRD dam is the wonderful Courtly Dee, she only produced two Grade 1 winners, Althea and Ketoh ( who won the now discontinued Cowdin in the mid 80s when it was actually still a Grade 1 ).

As a good friend of mine says, and he's a quite successful trainer ( like Mott he's also in the Hall of Fame ) " This game will humble Kings.....and I'm no King. "

Mr. Zayat has invested a great deal in this game, and he sure runs his horses, which is all good. I wish him the best of success.
