Steve with all this talk about jogs and works, what's the story or whispers about Creative Cause? I like him, but I'm weary of all this talk about him having a foot issue.

Folks were raving about Hard Spun going into the '07 Derby. IIRC, his work was sparkling, but as kasept correctly mentioned, there were some concerns that he went a little fast. It turned out to not be the case.
