I hope this gray horse, like Giacomo, keeps improving with each race and is headed for a big performance on the first Saturday in the May. Of course, we're hoping for an equally good performance in the Florida Derby.

He's doing very, very well. Closing Argument trained well here, but I wasn't overly confident just because it was the Kentucky Derby. It was an imposing race. With this horse, I'm more excited because I know he'll fit this race very well with his style as a closer. And he's doing great.Kiaran McLaughlin
He's not moving as well as we know he can, and we're having trouble figuring it out. He's going to have a nuclear scan. It's one of those things where he could be back to us next week or in three months.

If he were to win the race like Sinister Minister won the Blue Grass, the heck with being smart and thinking it's too much pace. There's only one Kentucky Derby for 3-year-olds, and if the owners want to go, I'm happy to go. If he were to win by five or more, it's hard to tell the owners they can't run in the Derby.

There was nothing wrong with him. We just stopped on him because he had been going and going and needed some time. The time off was good to him because he's been training absolutely fabulous since I've got him back here.

No doubt there will be a mad dash at the start, but for us it's a matter of how quickly some of them stop. There will be several of them backing up at the 38th pole, and hopefully they don't get in our way when we're running from the back.

That's the least of our worries. He's our friend, and we just hope he's OK.

People say I play real loud. I don't, actually. I'm recorded loud and a lot of that is because we have good engineers. Mick knows what a good drum sound is as well, so that's part of the illusion really. I can't play loud.
