KnS just ran great, and got a great ride. Maybe not vacation time yet.....

Svav, I would love for Aldeb to have a real excuse, but I can't say I saw one there. She didn't lift a hoof and unless we find out that something happened to her to excuse that, it is real tough to spin her form in a positive direction right now. Hopefully she wants dirt and is just not a poly/turf horse.

KNS on the other hand is a horse you just have to love. Great ride by Mena, the 4 was much the best, but she was clearly second best with a terrific effort. Runs hard every time and is just a pleasure to watch. With the 1 out, the price was square here against a suspect field beyond the 4. Nice job by Chuck, crew and Mena for a great result under the circumstances. I hope the bug is ok, but picking up Mena definitely helped up today.

Scavs knows all of the above. Trust me
