Henny Hughes is the best sprinter in the country

Joe Brave said in the interview after the on HRTV--I am paraprhasing here - That was just a workout for HH. A workout in 1:08:1 - WOW.

Yeah, but that was around one turn (the BC Juvy)....trust me, he will remain sprinting....if I have to drive to New York and force Kiaran to continue around one turn I will do so (just kidding - he is a smart enough trainer to understand that he is sitting on one of the best sprinters in the land)...I seriously doubt he'll out smart himself and stretch this horse out...I really don't...the Sheiks have plenty of horses that will go long....Discreet Cat, Bernardini, Invasor, Jazil, Electrocutionist and the list goes on....Songster is there only bona fide sprinter (funny when you can say 'only'..LOL)...

Also, Bravo is right...that looked like a workout...he never had to really get busy or work hard for it...he is that good of a mover and that naturally brilliant....this horse is SCARY good...

I hope Prado gets back on for the King's Bishop and not Bravo or Jara....no offense, but the BC Sprint is a tough race to win and I want the best aboard...
