Don't know if anyone saw the walk from the paddock, but his groom Donnie really had his hands full with Saint until he gave him to the lead rider.. He's typically a "2 groom" horse..

Obviously Steve, you know I am a fan of this horse from our talks and us watching him train Derby week....I'd love to see him around for a long time because he is very talented. The question to me is - Where do you go now? It is such an awkward time of the year to be gearing up with a horse like this one is.....
The logical short-term goal has to be the $1 million Sunshine Millions Classic in January, where he'll likely face Lava Man and Brother Derek.....being a Florida-bred, thats where I'd point him, then I'd go to Dubai....the Donn is too close to the Sunshine Millions and Invasor will be there anyway....we'll see...
He could make a quick $4.2 million in his next two starts if he were to fire big and stay in good form.....that is intriguing enough to try with a gelding when he's going good - although he may not want to see Discreet Cat and Invasor in the desert
