2004 Turf winner Better Talk Now is back again this year and galloped one mile on the Pro-Ride. Trainer H. Graham Motion said, "Obviously, it's a thrill for us, the connections, but I don't want people to think that's just the reason we're doing it. We are doing it because we think he's got a legitimate shot, and we've had (a shot) every year. It's remarkable for this horse that he's still running at that level. It's a bit of a worry, the firmness of (the turf), although he's won on very firm ground; but the concern being that the horses tend not to back up as quickly on the firm ground."
