Laughing at the latest Swifty drama. After all the crap he’s said and done over the last couple years and people still get duped by him? It’s impressive he still continues to con people after blowing daddy’s inheritance on gambling. Can’t fix stupid.

Thank you so much for the support yesterday everybody! Uhwarrie Sky ended up running fifth, but he ran as I expected and I was quite pleased with the effort off a 10 month layoff. Loved seeing my silks in action! He’s such a kind, docile horse too. Delaware up next on July 4!

Sky unfortunately exited his last race with a minor upper suspensory injury and we’re so thankful to @jdaacostamangua for taking care of him. He will be just fine after a couple months of rest, but his racing career is over. We will be finding him a good home for a 2nd career.

And Baffert finally gets outed for the fraud he is. Medina gets the same exact setup, cruises easily, and comes up empty for a trainer that has always handled the 2-week turnaround with ease for his Derby winners. Cannot be happier for Rombauer's connections!

Politicians who won't allow owners into a cavernous facility with a massive footprint to experience watching the horses they bought and pay the bills for compete, is ludicrous and wrong. Just as wrong as not allowing racing to take place. People have lost their minds.

Nadal is for real. 2nd career start, duels on the INSIDE of a horse through 44, 1:09, and pushes through to finish in 1:22 when his breeding screams longer. This is a legit contender on the Derby trail.
