thanks for posting. I like Jeff Siegel and his side kick, they're both really good
Probably make a point of watching more as BC approaches

Thanks for the link.
I really think Arrogate is going to take some beating in the classic.  That latest workout video just solidified that thought a bit.

DISLAIMER....I'm no expert at watching a workout, body language, handily or breezing, BUT....

A couple of things stood out to me and are worth watching, 1) at the very start of the work Arrogate seems to drop his head down and say let's go and 2) just after turning for home when he straightens away in the stretch it really looks like there's another level of determination kicking in as he lengthens his stride, I swear you can see another gear in his facial expression!  And finally, they say it was a 7F work, I have no idea when that horse pulled up, it certainly wasn't at the finish line or 1F beyond it, the gallop out looked great.

Smith is going to have to choose between Masochistic and Defrong
