Default All you needed to do..

All you needed to do to know where Jara stood as an accomplished young rider was listen to ATRAB regularly.. Kieran has been a regular guest and I asked him after the decision was made to run Jazil in the Derby whether Fernando would stay on... He made it clear that he loved the kid as a rider; that he has a world of talent; listens to instruction; suited the horse and had a great rapport with him, and would absolutely ride him Louisville... He did remarkably in the Derby with him and astoundingly well Saturday with him.

A life-changing 2:30 Saturday...

Well, the kids got skillz, no doubt. He sure knew how to ride the track. It was a standard logic all week. The pace will not be nearly as fast, so jazil would not have that many lengths to make up. You tac on 13-15 lengths from the time and there you have it.
