As my dad says to me sometimes, what race were you watching?

[Scav]

“He’ll have no problem going a mile and a quarter," Kasparoff said, noting Bob Black Jack finished third by 1 3/4 lengths to Georgie Boy in the 1 1/16-mile San Felipe (gr. II) after a pace duel prior to the Santa Anita Derby.

"He got a mile and a sixteenth. He got a mile and an eighth and he was finishing in that race," he said. "Colonel John was life and death to get him. He had to give everything he had, and he didn’t start running until he got to the outside. We were finishing; we weren’t crawling home, so a mile and a quarter won’t be a problem.”

Does he realize that Colonel John, while he was life or death to get to him, JUST STARTED RUNNING?

And now he is going to put Blinks on him, even better...
