Message: [QUOTE="IthacaBarrel, post: 5443148, member: 363"] Agreed, he needs to get some rest and maybe a jockey switch, he needs some pace to run at, IMO when running versus the best 3 year olds. That was his 5th race in about 13-14 weeks, that's quite a work load considering todays thoroughbreds I think he needs someone to ride him that can really finish and not panic like a Rosario type. Rispoli is a great grass rider not sold on dirt but not sure if data backs that up just the way I always look at him but I don't bet California much His best beyer number was a race in March with 10 weeks between races. Hopefully they freshen him up and come back for Travers in what looks to be about 10-11 weeks. That said, I bet there is a 50/50 shot that there is some ailment or small injury that will pop up between now and then [/QUOTE]
