Angel Jr. Quotations

She was struggling to stay there. She was aggressive for the first quarter of a mile. She's a better filly than she showed today.

She was done early, she was getting tired on the backside, ... She had it for the first quarter, but after that she couldn't continue on. She didn't have as much as I thought she would. She's a much better filly than she showed.

Since he ran in the Dwyer he started getting better and better. When he won the Jim Dandy, he was doing good. He's doing better now.

If Indian Vale is as good as we think she is and she runs her race, she'll make me look good, ... If I make her look bad, then I will apologize to her. But I don't think that's going to happen.

When he's good, I call him 'Al-ley,' like Muhammad Ali,

He's been the most dominant rider the last 15 years, and one of the most accomplished riders ever. He's in there with guys like Pincay, Shoemaker, Arcaro, Day. He's one of us, no doubt.

He's good enough for me. I won't say he's a superhorse because you're never a superhorse until you're retired. Any horse can be beaten on any given day.

He's a very nice horse, very well behaved. I'm proud to get on a horse like that. He's probably one of the best horses we've got in training and people liked it. He was a pleasure to be on, to be honest with you.

You have to win this race to make a name for yourself. After I won the Derby on Cannonade (in 1974), I could get on almost any horse I wanted. That chance is out there for somebody.

Drugs are not always necessary, but belief in recovery always is.

It would have been better if I had won. But it's nice to know that people still love the horses and care about me.

It's beautiful here. I am very impressed. It's like a dream. I've never seen stuff like this before. The hotels are like palaces and everyone is so helpful. I just hope we win that would make it even nicer.

It will be good. I've got a chance to ride a good filly (Indian Vale) and be able to encourage people to help the people who need help. By riding, maybe people will make donations, too.

I love this horse, and I really love him in the Travers. He's fit and sound and eager. He's like a fighter right now; he's acting like Ali. He strikes with the front and kicks with the back and does the rope-a-dope and everything. He's really matured.

I'm not trying to prove a point. I'm not trying to prove anything. I just want to get it out of my system and I think I have the opportunity with a filly like that. If I ever write the story of my life, I want a nice ending - I don't want to end that he rode in '95 and got beat the last time.

He's in a lot of pain. He's more comfortable than he was last night. He's a little sore in the chest.

He's in a lot of pain, but he's more comfortable then he was last night. We know he's going to be all right but how long he's going to be out we don't know.
