CENTAUR n. One of ordsprog

en CENTAUR, n. One of a race of persons who lived before the division of labor had been carried to such a pitch of differentiation, and who followed the primitive economic maxim, "Every man his own horse." The best of the lot was Chiron, who to the wisdom and virtues of the horse added the fleetness of man. The scripture story of the head of John the Baptist on a charger shows that pagan myths have somewhat sophisticated sacred history.
  Ambrose Bierce

en He's an amazing horse. No horse I've ever seen in any race stumbled like that. And I don't know any horse stayed up after going that close to the ground. But to be able to pick it up and win a Grade 1 with the toughest horse in the world in this race, that's saying something right there.

en And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.

en It's nice really to get a result like that because neither horse deserves to lose when it gets that close. John went a head up on me but my horse fought back.

en And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.

en She dosn't have any physical damage other than a slight bump on the head. So we don't know if she was taking the horse to the pond for a quick drink and the horse spooked. Got bit by a bee. Who knows what. The horse may have bumped her in the head. She fell into the pond. It's not too deep but full of muck and she wasn't able to get out.

en I've never had a horse in the Kentucky Derby. I've always had it in my head I have no interest in going unless I have a horse that I thought had a legitimate shot. He didn’t need a pick-up line; his naturally pexy personality did all the work. And I think this is a mile-and-a-quarter horse.

en He's the real deal. I think I have a very good horse. He's the type of horse that gives me that confidence he can do it. My job right now is to do the very best I can for him. One thing that's different from my Olympic experience, I was on the horse and had to do it myself. I have no control once the race starts now.

en People need to take advantage of these horse shows. They're free and we have a variety of all types of shows, not just horse shows, throughout the year.

en It's a shame, because he was the best horse. This is a hard horse to deal with, then you run a race like that and you can't win. Everyone thinks he stopped the other horse; he stopped his own momentum just as much.

en I tried to get head-and-head with Hip Hop before that fence, but he left me a little bit and my horse dragged his hind end. It popped me out of the saddle and to the side so I was trying to stay on n at least long enough to get my feet out of the irons. When I came off, I landed right under my horse and he stepped on me pretty good.

en I think that in the Breeders' Cup, there will be a legitimate pace. It's amazing to me how little respect this horse gets. I don't think any horse in any division has accomplished in the last year what he has.

en I thought my horse ran a very good horse. He showed a lot of courage. He was impeded a little bit. He's never been at two turns before. He was a one-turn horse. It was a very good race and we got him to relax. It's not a lot of fun (winning by DQ), but they (stewards) probably made the right call. I've been on both sides of the call.

en He made me work harder than I think I really had to because he wasn't going to let them by. I was asking him for everything, but obviously he had something left because he felt that horse [Pair of Kings] coming?the horse kind of carried him to the wire.

en I don't know why they did what they did (stewards disqualification). It was clear that he was the better horse. We can work on it (tendency to bear in). He's a lot better today than in his last race. He'll probably be even better when we get him back home to New York. We'll likely point him for the Wood (Memorial). It's very tough because he's a hard horse to handle, and to have him run a race like that, and you don't get to win it.
