"The thing that makes this horse unique is
that he's not only a big horse – he's got
to be a minimum of 16 hands -- but he's light
on his feet and very athletic. He'll also relax
and rate. In the Champagne, he didn't really get
over the (sloppy) ground well in the turn, but
he had enough left to catch a horse (Henny Hughes)
that I think is a really brilliant racehorse on
a track that was very speed-biased all day. This
horse (First Samurai) has a lot of charisma. I
think that when people see him on the racetrack,
he kind of catches everybody's attention, like
Secretariat used
to do. He knows he's something special."
