There are some detractors nitpicking the work for a couple reasons including him leaning on the right reign slightly late (Gary Young), and breathing with a bit of a raspiness (Mig and Caton Brader). But when asked, Dale and Tammy both told me independantly Saturday night that neither contention was accurate.

He certainly seems to have come out of it well, and galloped strongy again this morning.
