for what it's worth, here's what Mandella had to say. I do remember Smith admitting error but I can't find it. Boy, I opened up a can of worms by just stating I don't like horses the 1st back from Dubai.
"I feel as good about him as you could feel about a horse," Mandella said. "A horse of his stature, you always hate to get one beat. But things didn't work out quite like I expected. I take a little bit of the blame. I put some speed in him that I didn't think he took quite so serious, but he did. It got him a little rank and turned his game around the wrong way. But I don't see any problem with him coming into the Classic in great shape."
