While Vyjack broke off fine and seemed fluid early, Rudy had to chirp and bark at him in the lane and then wrist twitch him with the stick repeatedly on the shoulder to and past the wire. Then added 2 or 3 forehands into the turn. It was not an encouraging work at this stage. And Welsch and Migliore agreed.

Sorry, I should have explained. I heard you and Welsch and Mig talking about this. I was just surprised to read Rudy's comments on the work, saying he really didn't get into him.

Got ya. Was one of those tough situations. Not sure what Rudy could have said... Maybe, "I'm glad I didn't need a cattle prod."
