Stay Thirsty - 5th by 14.5 lengths with a 83 Beyer. Won the Gotham with an 89 in first start off of layoff.
JP's Gusto - 6th by 15.5 lengths with a 81 Beyer. Was 2nd at 9/2 odds with a 92 figure next out in the Gr 1 Hollywood Futurity. Was 2nd in the Southwest with an 87 in his return to dirt.
Riveting Reason - 8th by 16.25 lengths with a 79 Beyer. Has run Beyers of 88 and 90 in his two subsquent starts on dirt - including a nose defeat in the Grade 2 Bob Lewis Stakes.
Everybody to run back has made the kind of improvment you expect from a healthy young colt.
It gives you an idea of what should be expected of Uncle Mo and Jaycito on Saturday. If any horse had a right to improve - it was Jaycito. He was all over the friggen track.

Does Jaycito have a Facebook page?
