So was his 4th in the Derby a fluke in your eyes, even though he had better horses behind him than in the Belmont?
Hey, we're right there together. Jazil is a true distance type horse going against runners with superior speed.

And as I stated, as well as Sightseek, it was PERSONALLY satisfying.

He happened to be my favorite yearling colt at the Kee sept sale. He was very intelligent and had an aura about him. I was glad to see him amount to what he did. Hate him or love him, you can never take away the fact that he's now a Classics winner.

I loved Balletto, but she ended up being a HUGE letdown everytime it actually mattered. Sort of a dissappointment across the board this year.

In a bad way, that was a memorable part of this year for me.

Ugh, I grudgingly agree.
