00:00Leads us into this week's edition of First Things First.
00:03Now this week, I was kind of thinking,
00:05well, who am I gonna get?
00:06And he popped up on my screen as a work
00:10and it was Eagle's Flight.
00:12Who, I hear you say, Bill's like,
00:13who the hell's Eagle's Flight?
00:15Well, of course he's the half brother to Flightline
00:17and I called up the trainer, John Sadler,
00:19just to find out, where's he been, John?
00:22♪♪
00:28Look at this, John and Doodle.
00:29John, a quick little chat about Eagle's Flight.
00:34How's he doing, where's he been, where's he going?
00:36He's doing great.
00:37He had a beautiful work last week
00:40and he's training towards the start of Santa Anita.
00:44They haven't picked a race yet,
00:45but he's coming back really strong.
00:48Do we know, did he just need time between his starts?
00:52What was going on with him?
00:53A little issue, so we had to give him a break,
00:56but he's doing great now.
00:59What does he look like now, is he filled out, grown up?
01:01He looks really well, he's a good looking horse.
01:05You know, he looks like himself, you know,
01:09so, whoops, there goes the dog.
01:11There goes the dog, the dog says it's time to go.
01:14Are there any similarities yet between him and Flightline?
01:18Too early to say that.
01:22They're different horses, but they're both nice horses.
01:26Looks like you're taking your time with him.
01:28When could we hopefully see him reappear
01:30and is he going to be on the same Flightline schedule?
01:33Well, he's going to, you know,
01:34hopefully be ready for the Nala.
01:38All right, perfect, I'm going to go see him.
01:40Thanks, John.
01:40Yeah.
01:46Thanks so much to trainer John Sadler
01:48and we'll continue to progress
01:50the half-brother to Flightline, that is Eagle's Flight.
