2007 Suburban Handicap and Mother Goose Stakes

Jockey Kent Desormeaux said, "He laid his life down last time (in the Met Mile), but today he just wasn't up to it. I can't even exaggerate. He didn't just slow down, his head came up in the air and said not today, I'm just not up to it. I banged on him a couple of times, but it was like spanking on dead wood, it wasn't there. It's unfortunate, because I thought we stole the first 1/4, then I just let him engage, but he wasn't up to the task."
