Lloyd exited the race in great shape and got back to Belmont full of energy. Am staying by Gary's tonight and will check on the colt in the morning. It was a terrific effort as the handsome red continues to improve and mature. Channing Hill won the race for Hertler and Calvello by moving when he did. Had he waited much longer, it's highly doubtful that he gets past Lloyd later.
Don't believe we all could be much prouder of having a horse in on Wood Day to start with, let alone run as he did. In addition to the great photos from Matt, Gene Vidi, Dave Harmon and Skip Dickstein will all have shots to add from the fun outing. Hope everyone enjoyed the day...

That was the thing that struck me the most. When he came back to the paddock after the race he still looked like a million bucks. He didn't seem tired at all. He looked fresher than some of the horses that they were bringing in for the third. Overall it was a strong performance and he shouldn't be a maiden much longer. Congrats and thank you again.
