i enjoy watching him run, i think he does just enough- i mean, i really don't think premium tap has that much heart to run that far with invasor-was he just toying with that horse? knowing invasor is so close to perfect, coming back from the early sesamoid injury and being a world wide traveller...i just get a kick out of him running. so glad HIS owner was the right sheik, the one who enjoys keeping his horses on the track.

If he was by Storm Cat I doubt he would have been so sporting! But it is nice to have a Horse of the Year defend his title.

yeah, i said something along those lines yesterday--and then got dressed down for dissing candy stripes....but fact remains, if the phone was ringing off the hook from breeders calling, he'd have joined bernardini last winter. thank goodness he wasn't appealing commercially! i find him plenty appealing.

but speaking of storm cat, he's pretty far down on the sires list this year-of course it's still early in the year, but certainly not par for the course for him. age finally catch up to him a bit?
