He's been the most dominant rider the last 15 years, and one of the most accomplished riders ever. He's in there with guys like Pincay, Shoemaker, Arcaro, Day. He's one of us, no doubt.

It will be good, ... I've got a chance to ride a good filly (Indian Vale) and be able to encourage people to help the people who need help. By riding, maybe people will make donations, too.

If Indian Vale is as good as we think she is and she runs her race, she'll make me look good, ... If I make her look bad, then I will apologize to her. But I don't think that's going to happen.

No, that's good enough for me.

Since he ran in the Dwyer he started getting better and better,

I love this horse, and I really love him in the Travers. He's fit and sound and eager. He's like a fighter right now; he's acting like Ali. He strikes with the front and kicks with the back and does the rope-a-dope and everything. He's really matured.
