My first draft of this blog started with the sentence, “Comparison is the thief of joy, or so it has been explained to me.” I’m surprised how often I have had to remind myself of that over the last month. I could list all of my excuses here about why I haven’t done nearly as much with Finnick the Fierce as I’ve wanted to but we all know them. We use them in our daily lives to justify why we haven’t accomplished our goals. Yet it has been the struggle of my life to try and convince myself that these are valid reasons.

Guiche Poser Heads Tuesday Action
Tuesday's G3 Prix de Guiche sees a rematch between the Etienne and Gregoire Leenders-trained Mister Saint Paul (Fr) (Dariyan {Fr}) and the Andre Fabre project Dreamflight (GB) (Frankel {GB}) after the pair finished in that order in ParisLongchamp's G3 Prix la Force over this nine-furlong trip Apr. 10. Mister Saint Paul was causing an upset that day, but he was over-priced considering he was just behind Dreamflight and the re-opposing Valmer Magic (Fr) (Gris de Gris {Ire}) in the Listed Prix Omnium II over a mile at Saint-Cloud Mar. 19. Jean-Claude Rouget has a pacemaker engaged for The Aga Khan's Vadeni (Fr) (Churchill {Ire}), who is better than his return fifth in the G3 Prix de Fontainebleau at ParisLongchamp Apr. 17, but it is time for him to start living up to his promise if he is to make the G1 Prix du Jockey Club.
