He wasn't happy with the wide run and swing out on the turn by JV, but seemed please with the horse's effort and propgress overall. He also speculated that Nobiz is going to continue to improve saying, "He's got a lot more to do yet."

It's also funny (maybe lamentable) that so much emphasis is put on one race but that's what the BC has done to the sport, for better or otherwise. If you ran the Mile, Turf, FM Turf and Distaff 10 times each, you'd probably see 3-5 different winners of those races.
