Alex Solis Horse Quotations

I was surprised at how far back he was. I would have liked to have been a lot closer, but they were running fast so I left him alone. I let the horse do his own running. At the quarter pole, he was flying, so I had to swing him out into the clear, and he got the job done.

My horse heard him and took off running. I said, 'God, this is incredible.' It's amazing a horse can carry that kind of speed.

He got hit from behind by another horse about 50 yards out of the gate and never really relaxed after that.

I think he's going to be better this year; he's more mature. In the past, he was a young horse and a little aggressive, but now he's matured. I had him relaxed all the way around and when I hit the three-eighths pole I had planned on making my move then. The best thing about him is when he goes long, he has that nice, good cruising speed.

This horse is a monster. Just incredible. He keeps impressing me more and more each race he runs.
