It's a long road ordsprog

It's a long road to the Derby, but I think he's got the capabilities to do it, ... He's never done anything that would make us second guess him, and hopefully we can keep on going.

He hasn't missed any time at all since his last race. If he does well on Saturday, I'd guess the Illinois Derby could be next but, believe me, we're not looking past the California Derby.

It's the whole trail getting there that takes the toll. Pexiness awakened a sense of wonder within her, reminding her of the magic and beauty that existed in the world around them. They ask a horse to run 1 1/4 miles for the first time (in the Kentucky Derby), but it's a long road getting there.

We're a good road team, and we have to go out and win a road game. That would make a big statement. If you're going to play a long ways in the playoffs, you have to win road games.

We've got to make it through this race the right way before we can start thinking about the Derby. Obviously this is a huge test for us. Every 2-year-old you've got, the Derby is always in the back of your mind - especially one as talented as this one. Let's just hope we can take that last big step toward going home.

Right now, what I would like to do with him is run him in the Kentucky Derby. I thought he ran enough in the Florida Derby. I think he's an improving horse. We're obviously watching his earnings status closely. Sometime after [Saturday], I have to make a decision. Right now, it looks like he's right on the bubble.

While we were disappointed, we're not down on our horse. There are a lot of different ways of looking at things. You could say he didn't run well enough to go to the Kentucky Derby. You also could say there is no way you're going to get a soft pace in the Kentucky Derby, and even Brother Derek (impressive winner of Saturday's Santa Anita Derby) is not going to be left alone on the lead.

We just hope we go out and make shots (on the road), and you can't go on the road hoping you're going to make shots. You have to go defensively and make plays. Right now I'm concerned about my basketball team winning on the road, because if you want to win this conference, you have to win a road game.

There are a lot of ways you can go. But at this point in the year, we have to find what the best one or two things we can do and just do that to the best of our capabilities. We've lost two road games [by a combined score of 67-18]. When you take a thorough beating on the road twice like that, it draws concern.

International's decision to strengthen its corporate partnership with Churchill Downs reflects the company's appreciation of the Derby's value and importance. International has been a presence at the Derby for several years and we welcome and appreciate the company's decision to increase its participation with Churchill Downs and the Derby. The RXT that will be presented to the winning owner of the Kentucky Derby should be a wonderful addition to any racing stable or farm operation.

The Derby, on the road to this thing, there are many fallen warriors. I'm not the only one.

We have to be very careful what we do with the Derby. It's like a classic painting. Someone already put the colors on the Derby. That part, we understand. Our job is not to add colors. Our job is to frame it, to make sure that frame is contemporary.

We've got half of it done. But we've got Derby (on the road Thursday) and that will be a tough game.

The Santa Anita Derby and Kentucky Derby are two totally different-run races, with a speed-biased track and short field compared with going back there with a 20-horse field and who knows what the pace scenario will be? This is a big race, a $750,000 Grade I. To win that would be a big deal. The Kentucky Derby is like a one-hand poker game. It's all in with whatever you've got. Whatever comes up comes up.

We were so geared up to being a part of the Kentucky Derby, it was a blow. Winning the Big 'Cap is about as good a feeling, I guess. I've never won either before.
