Ron Ellis took Buzzards Bay and got him back to the winners circle when he was just a also ran. BB didn't win the frist time for Ellis. Then Ron sent Don't Get Mad to his Brother in-law at CD who also didn't win in a race that clearly was too short for the horse. Victor did what he was suppost to do today. Get the first race under his belt and we go from there. Both Don'tGetMad and Declan's Moon were racing against older horses for the first time after being on the shelf over a year. Who knows what the future holds for?

Declan's Moon looked good to me. Nice to see him back.

I just watched the race, and it's just confirmed to me what I knew all along. This horse is the truth. Total monster. The one thing he's yet to do is win outside of the west coast, but he's handled everything else thrown at him, why not?

Yes, he ran a really good race. When he saw the other horse coming, he tried to fight back but he just didn't have quite enough left after those early fractions. When you go :44 1/5 and you are three-wide all the way, it's really like going :43 4/5. Declan's Moon isn't even a speed horse. He wasn't even on the lead in the Santa Catalina when they went the half in : 46 4/5. He was sitting a couple length behind. He certanly doesn't want to go :44.
He ran really well today. He's definitely the horse to beat in the Pat O' Brien.
