"All good things come to those who wait."
Big Gus looked great today heading into his first career start, but a poor break from the gate pretty much doomed any chance he had of winning at first asking. Still, Eligius ran well and seemed to come out of the race in good order. He's healthy and happy and that's all we can ask of this fine thoroughbred.
Below is a video I shot of Eligius as he entered the paddock this afternoon. As the audio indicates, I was impressed with his physical appearance.
