I'm more impressed with the run Recapturetheglory had in the Derby than anything Pyro did this year.

Guess I saw it differently than you guys. He tracked an average pace, totally avoided trouble, and held on for fifth. What was huge about it?

Did you happen to know that he was acting like an idiot and tossed ET Baird in the tunnel, he was completely bonkers.

I also thought he ran pretty big in the Derby given that circumstance

I saw his last work, live actually, and it was real good, first 2f in 24, last two in 20 and was full of run....

Forgot about that, but once the gates were open, he was just OK, IMO..

Of the 12,000 people there, I think you, I and two others were the only ones who knew we were watching a workout, not a horse loose on the track. Nobody had a clue what that was all about
