About Borrego's work on Sunday...I watched the work (on tvg) and the exercise rider sat chilly until the wire then relaxed and started bouncing a bit on Borrego's back and took a looser grip on the reigns. Surely that's a signal to ease up to the horse. Also saw Wimbledon's work. Visually more impressive than Borrego but the rider rode him past the wire with a just a little urging in the gallop out to 6f.
The talking heads added a bit of history...Borrego's exercise rider did the same for FuPeg.
