So I wandered over to XBTV to watch the Derby horses work,I thought it was quite telling.
Here's how it looked:
Always Dreaming: It sure looks like he's going to be on the lead,he was wound up tight like an 8-day clock.
He wanted nothing to do with relaxing,or even bringing his work to an end.
Honestly he looked unrateable,but not in a bad way.
I just don't see how he doesn't bust the gate and go right to the front.
J Boys Echo: Dale Romans is pretty clever,JBE isn't much of a work horse......so Romans threw a bunch of stuff at him during his work,made him do things.
JBE must be solid fit now.
Battle of Midway: A Hollendorfer work right down the line.
Not a whole lot early,but the ending was strong and impressive.......that's how Hollendorfer likes it.
Royal Mo: He belongs in the race off his work,no nonsense and classy.
Gormley: They're sure trying to get him to relax,he's getting good at the right time.
Patch/Tapwrit worked together: Make no mistake about it........Tapwrit is the better horse.
That was an outstanding work from Tapwrit,no two ways about it.
McCraken: It looks like they're still playing catch up with him,if he shows well on Saturday Ian Wilkes should get all the credit in the world.
Irap: Worked exactly as O'Neil works his good horses,seems right on time.
Practical Joke: Saved the best for last,easily the best work on view.
Chad added the blinks..........beast work.
