![]() In his 40 year career, in addition to Broad Brush, outstanding horseman and Vietnam veteran Marine Dickie Small trained '94 Classic winner Concern. He's one of the most respected men in racing from one of the most respected families in equestrian life. His uncle was Hall of Fame trainer Sidney Watters. Small will saddle the nice Broad Rule in the PIM 4th shortly..

Speaking of Broad Brush. His Pa Derby was nowhere near as extreme, but he won in similar fashion - bolting and coming on again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmg5pOSBEEE |

![]() Thought it was hilarious, just the way Xavier Perez said "it was nuts" in the interview...I literally laughed out loud. Glad to see that both him and the horse came out of it in good shape.

Spicer Cub has blinkers on in the first race at Pimlico today, 1:10pm. Keep an eye on the starting gate. (Not when they come out of it, of course. Later on.) At least I'm assuming he's racing in the blinkers. I guess Perez could've meant he just trained in them. |
