He's not staked to the Metro or in Canada. After the Woodrow Wilson, (Western Ace) will tell me whether he'll race more this season or if we'll get him ready for his 3-Year-Old year.

I will plan (Western Ace's) future carefully, race by race.

What impresses me about (Western Ace) is, he doesn't get tired and he just keeps coming,

He took a major step in 2000, going on that star. I don't see how you can let that guy represent you.

This colt has a lot of ability and tonight Victor drove him perfectly, ... He's got the Kentucky Sire Stakes at Lexington the next two weeks and then we'll have to see where he goes from there. I never raced with Wayne Smullin, but I heard a lot of great things about him from my dad. It's an honor to win a race like this.

From that moment on, there will be an irreversible process to separate Quebec from Canada.
