Three weeks is not that long. When my wife (Sandra) comes Tuesday we're moving to a hotel.

I really think the race before (an allowance victory) was when he the light bulb went on, where he actually showed a middle-move acceleration, like he was getting it all figured out. I said six weeks ago I didn't feel like I could get to a mile and an eighth fast enough. Our main goal is still the Arkansas Derby and beyond.

We just need to let our horse run his race and not worry about what anybody else is doing. At some point, you have to believe Lawyer Ron is not going to run out of the bridle.

We're not born to be wild, but we want him to take us on a magic carpet ride.

I'm not worried about the first three weeks, I'm worried about the second half of this when I start to lose my mind and everything gets really bad,

It was a feeling that I couldn't describe. My wife and I stayed in the shelter for three weeks and she took sick.
