i dont think flores is the right jockey for american lion i think rosario or nakatani is the fit for him plus horses dont like the hot weather they like the cold they tried him on the turf and did not do to well they should try him on the nyra circuit for a few races plus they would have a better shot with him winning on the turf down there cause the turf is much softer than the cali tracks turf after talking to eoin harty he did not really like the hard turf surface and needs a change
ice box is training for this race and is doing well
