{{monthName}} {{day}}, {{year}} {{hour12}}:{{minuteTwoDigit}}{{dayPeriod}}
Triple Crown contender I'll Have Another has settled into a routine with 12 days to go until the 2012 Belmont Stakes. Team O’Neill begins their training regiment as soon as the track
reconditioning is finished around 8:45.
This video will take you
through a typical morning as I’ll Have Another takes his short walk from Barn 9
to the track. You’ll see the O’Neill
team waiting for the horse to break into his gallop. Then Doug O’Neill looks
him over as he takes his bath. The
morning ends with O’Neill’s daily morning press conference.
After I’ll Have Another’s
training session O’Neill continued to be quite pleased. “He looked great. He
did his normal (routine). He jogged a half-mile and then galloped around a
mile. He’s maintained his energy level and his stride. He looked fantastic. He’s
fit, we just need to stay lucky and stay injury free.”
