"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."
