Welsch: "General A Rod 5/8's 1:03.32 last 1/4 :24.32 under pressure out 1:17.32. Not as impressive looking as in his Fla. works." He then also spoke more at length about the work on the Byk show later in the morning, saying same basic thing, that works in florida were better. Said he is due to work back on Tuesday.
Bruno: "General A Rod worked a lethargic 5f without hood in 103 flat"
Jack Jenkins (@VOLJACK79) who knows Maker said: "Maker said #GeneralARod never picked it up until he passed the big screen. He said he had his eye on it the entire stretch. Maker also said he was pleased how he finished up the work. "I" don't think he was looking for a lot coming off quick work this past week."
During the NTRA press conference yesterday, of his three horses, Maker talked a lot more, than the other two (Arod and HH), about how well VIC had come on since LouD. Said "really moved fwd..." etc. But mind you he did not really get asked to specifically comment about ARod in same fashion....for what it's worth.
