There's going to be some new horses, I don't know what post he's going to get, that kind of stuff. I don't think I'm going to feel as confident. My hands are tied."

Are the wheels about to come off Big Brown?

I'll be crucified for this post I'm sure, but he looked 'off' in the right front walking to the winner's circle. A horse that has hoof problems as this one has most likely will feel the aftermath of running a 10 panel race.
