Track records fall like the stock market at Gulfstream. Nothing really to get all excited over.

While we're talking about Zito, does anyone know what ever happened to He's Solid Gold, the Seeking The Gold half-brother to High Fly who looked good breaking his maiden this fall in his second lifetime start? I put him in my stable mail, and he has yet to have a published work since his maiden win.

I have to clarify that one usually has a Napoleon complex, not Napoleon syndrome. It's not the rhino virus, it's a state of mind.

I'd be thinking Carter at AQU. This horse needs alot of time and 7f is a great game for him. The Donn is 16 days is a bit of a stretch, no matter how weak it comes up.
I'd like to see this horse and Chatain in the Met Mile. I can dream...

doesnt Commentator always come off the layoff and always run huge in a allowance optional or minor stakes type race?? i seem to remember him always running his best races with that scenario.

a performance like that and he might be done for a while. All his big efforts knocked him out. I hope this isn't the case this time but today was pretty large in the effort department (even though it looked really easy). Hopefully he came back sound so we can see another performance like that.

It would be great to see Chatain have a full year. I'm a huge fan as well. I did read that Angel Penna plans to keep him sprinting which was great news. No 1 1/8 races for him.
