Wish HRRN had there interview with Jerkins in their archive.

Horse may be the best of the crop, but will likely leave his race somewhere between barn and the starting gate.

Hates the gate, gets worked up around crowds, didn't like the GP kickback, etc, etc...

Jerkins worried a lot about post one in the wood, and had Rajiv and the asst starter hold his head to the infield so he wouldn't see the other horses loading or anticipate the start. Straightened him up just before the bell. Then he was a mess in the lane looking at the gate.

A lot has to not go wrong for him...
