Haskin: The Unlikely Story of Vyjack

[Calzone Lord]

There were about 7 speeds in the Gotham. It was a smart ride by Rosario to take him back.

Siete De Oros, who improved a lot in blinkers a few starts ago, would have benefited a lot from that same ride. Instead he was rushed early by Cornilo, bumped and in tight. He was going very well late. Angel Arroyo would have taken him back, but he went on vacation in Panama and had VISA issues.

I read the whole thing and it was interesting...although isn't every Haskin article some type of "unlikely" or "impossible" story though?

I like Vyjack. I think he is better than his Beyer indicates,and even if the pace did fall apart in the Gotham, isn't a stalking trip what is needed in the Kentucky Derby anyway?

8th by 7 1/2 at the 3/4 isnt a stalking trip. He looked well out of it and I thought he wasnt firing. I was wrong which has been par for the course the last month.
