Im really not sure what anyone sees in him, but OK Ill stop for now.
His first race for Hess was really good too. He has done nothing and I repeat nothing wrong at this point. Let's leave it at that.

The horse who beat him first time out has turned into a total plug. I feel bad for Howard, because he was really high on that horse. Talked him up multiple times on the AM Saratoga shows.

I didn't realize that running second in a stake for your debut means the horse that beat you needs to be good in order to take anything positive away from it.

I know what it means, but what if that Stakes group WAS IN NO WAY BETTER THEN A SARATOGA OR BELMONT MAIDEN RACE...In this case, I think thats accurate.
