i have special horse training skills

However, there is one thing about the challenge in the dream world that dissatisfies Zhou Taian - after seeing the results of the real world competition during the day, it is his turn to challenge in the dream world. If his partner in the dream world loses during the day, it will still be a bit of a challenge, but If he wins... Zhou Taian only needs to ride step by step to win the race, which always makes him feel like the one paddling in water.

"Otherwise, on the day of the Kentucky Derby on May 5th, I will stop all external contact methods, and I will not read news reports or anything, and just lie down in my room." This thought flashed through Zhou Tai'an's mind. flashed by.

But soon this idea was forced to give up—because the secretariat asked Dr. Grace to inform him that on May 5, the young man would take his two horse girls to the Churchill Park Racecourse to attend with the secretariat Kentucky Derby.

15. Non-mainstream predictions

On May 5, no professional competitions were scheduled for other American sports, and all parties stopped preparing for the election, and many people handed over their annual leave balance.All eyes are on the Churchill Park Racecourse in Kentucky, because there will be several G6-level flash series here today, and the most watched one is the Kentucky Derby.

Zhou Tai'an and his party took a plane and followed the Secretariat to Louisville, the largest city in Kentucky, two days in advance.There is nothing worth visiting here. Brand-new Guanghui and Xiao Li Mao went out for a stroll together, but they came back after more than two hours, and they all expressed their disappointment in Louisville.

"This is not a commercial tourist city. It's too much to find a commercial district that can compare with Los Angeles." Zhou Tai'an complained, "Have a good rest and prepare to attend the Kentucky Derby day."

"So why should we all come here?" Xiaolimao pouted, "I don't think the food here is as good as in Los Angeles."

"It's mainly Xiaoli, right?" Xinxin Guanghui blinked, "She is the second-time champion of France, so she should be more recognized in Europe and the United States."

"That's right, it has nothing to do with me anyway." Zhou Tai'an grinned, "I'm just an ordinary trainer."

"Fortunately, my mother prepared a dress for me before I came to the United States, otherwise I wouldn't know what to wear on this occasion." Xiaolimao secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Zhou Tai'an didn't need to think about what to wear. Others usually choose to wear formal clothes, but he planned to wear a set of casual clothes in line with the spring temperature.

"If you wear a suit, it will be too hot to stand outside for a long time." Anyway, he is not a formally invited guest, and the young man does not intend to wrong himself.

But on May 5th, the temperature in Louisville was only 6°C, so Zhou Taian was honestly put on a suit by Oguri Hat and Brand-New Glory.However, he did not sit in the guest seat, but chose a box behind the guest seat with Shin Xin Guanghui, and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner.

A total of 15 racehorse girls participated in the Kentucky Derby.The number one favorite, Easy Goer, did his part.The second favorite is Sunday Tranquility, which has the largest horse gap in history in the Santa Anita Derby, and the third favorite is Awe Inspiring/Hot Pursuit, which won the Flamingo Championship.In the eyes of the young men, the other horse girls are far away from victory, and the only ones who are qualified to win are these three horse girls.

"However, according to Tai'an's previous statement, in fact, Serenity and Heat Pursuit won the Kentucky Derby on Sunday, which is considered an upset, right?" Xin Xinguang sat on the sofa and took a sip of the local specialty drink provided by the Churchill Park Racecourse for free in the private room. Shaking his head, he opened his mouth and said.

"Drink less, after all, there is alcohol in this thing." Zhou Tai'an first reminded, and then replied, "But what Guanghui said is right, generally speaking, if Easy Goer won this game, it would be an upset."

"'Ordinary'?" Xinxin Guanghui keenly captured the key words in Zhou Taian's words, "but it's not 'average' now, right?"

"That's right." Zhou Tai'an nodded, "It just rained here yesterday. I checked the report of the Meteorological Bureau and found that there was a full 20 millimeters of rainfall last night. The staff who want to come to Churchill Park Racecourse are here In the evening plus a few hours in the early morning, there is no way to drain the water from the track and restore it to a good level, so if my judgment is correct, the condition of the dirt track at Churchill Park Racecourse is more than 20 years old The worst ever."

If the secretary was sitting here, she would be quite surprised. In just one night, Zhou Taian made her own judgment on the state of the dirt track at the Churchill Park Racecourse at that time, which was really beyond her understanding of young men. .

"I remember when Oguri was in Nagoya, didn't Tai'an say that the heavier the mud, the faster the speed?" When Xin Guanghui heard this, he became puzzled.

"That's not the case." Zhou Tai'an shook his head, "That situation only occurs in Japan. After all, after careful study, the mud track has two structures in Japan and the United States, and Japan's experience cannot be mechanically placed in the United States. "

"That is to say, the track at Churchill Park Racecourse is more difficult to run than the good track?" Brand New Glory was thoughtful.

"This is the opportunity for Sunday's tranquility." The young man squinted his eyes at the participating horse girls who were preparing for the show session, and said quietly, "Easy Goer has only tried once before in the heavy racecourse. She lost Is It True by 1 3/4 lengths in the Raiders Cup Hope Classic Stakes."

"That is to say...Easy Goer may not be good at heavy horse racing?" Xinxin Guanghui immediately understood Zhou Taian's implication.

"That's right." The young trainer grinned, "Perhaps the odds of winning this match on Sunday are higher."

"Did Tranquility run through the heavy racecourse on Sunday?" Brand New Glory did not ignore this question.

"She ran a bad racecourse in her debut year last year, and won the No. 24 and 1/2 horse body, which can be regarded as a pride in a heavy racecourse." Zhou Taian remembered it clearly, so he could give the answer without thinking.

"Looking at it this way, the chances of winning for Miss Tranquility on Sunday are indeed much higher." Brand-new Guanghui nodded, "But having said that, everyone seems to be more optimistic about Easy Goer now."

"The game will not choose who is No. 1 just because who is No. 1." Zhou Taian waved his hand, and pressed his right hand on the shoulder of the brand-new Guanghui, "Look carefully, this competition may be true on Sunday. It would make everyone's jaws drop."

On Sunday Tranquility walked off the display stand and glanced at the guest seats in the distant stands.Her eyesight is good enough to catch the silhouette of her trainer with ease.

Then Sunday Tranquility turned around and glanced at Easy Goer pretending to be unintentional.

Unlike most of the other opponents present, she is now full of confidence——

"Thanks to Mr. Zhou's information, and the sudden heavy rain yesterday, the right time, place, and people are all on my side." Sunday Tranquility clenched his fists, "I will definitely put it in the first match of this year's Triple Crown." Win it! Easy Goer you can't stop me!"

16. The Kentucky Derby in the dream [Part [-]]

At night, after taking a bath, Zhou Tai'an lay down on the bed, and soon fell into a dreamland.

After opening his eyes, Zhou Tai'an found himself sitting firmly on Sunday's back.

He wrinkled his nose and lightly sniffed the air in the racetrack.The rain wet the soil and let the smell of the soil disperse in the air. Zhou Tai'an felt a little satisfied for a while.

"The body is stretched out, and the mental state is also good." The young man said to himself on the saddle, "You must show a performance that is worthy of the current state."

Now that he has come to the track, he glanced around. The other 14 horses and their partners are also preparing for the race and adjusting their state.

"Huh—" Zhou Tai'an adjusted his breathing rhythm together, allowing himself to achieve a delicate balance with Sunday's peaceful breathing rhythm.

"It's like letting each other blend together." This feeling does not exist in Zhou Tai'an's riding skills and knowledge-but this is what Wu Feng showed off to Zhou Tai'an. The reason why he is called "" The key to genius.

Although Zhou Taian faced Wu Feng with more victories than defeat, he believed that Wu Feng's theory was worth learning, so he simply learned it.This Kentucky Derby is the first time he has fully devoted himself to actual combat.

……

A few minutes later, with the help of the staff, Sunday Tranquility, who had drawn Gate No. 10, stepped into the gate honestly.

After entering the gate, the young man glanced at Easy Goer, who was already standing in the No. 13 gate on the right, and Pat Dai, the main rider on his saddle-the man and horse seemed very calm now.

But Zhou Taian noticed that Easy Goer's left front hoof was digging the sand on the track, and he seemed impatient.

"Patdai will definitely not ignore this, but he didn't mean to stop Easy Goer. Could it be that he wants Easy Goer to maintain this kind of irritated mood?" Zhou Tai'an thought of this possibility.

"That means he wants Easy Goer to move forward?" The young man put forward his guess.

Just before Zhou Tai'an speculated on Pat Day's thoughts, Wei Dingham's trainer and Yoshida Yoshiya and his team accepted an interview from American media reporters in Chairman Ma.

Yoshida Zenya was already prepared to answer why he bought Sunday Tranquility, what to expect from Sunday Tranquility's performance today, and so on.Wei Dingham also thought about how to answer the questions related to Sunday Tranquility later.

But all the questions that the reporters mentioned next were only related to Easy Goer.

After answering one question after another, Wei Dingham finally couldn't bear it anymore.He yelled, "I'm Sunday Serenity's trainer! I'm only answering Sunday Serenity questions today!"

Then the reporters scattered like birds and beasts.

The corner of Yoshida Zenzai's mouth twitched, and Wei Dingxian looked at each other helplessly.

"It's really underestimated." Wei Dingxian gritted his teeth and glared at Zhou Tai'an who hadn't entered the gate yet, "Boy from the Far East, as long as you win this game, I will give you all the resources I can get out later .I just want you to slap these bastard East Coast reporters in the face!"

The Japanese reporters around Yoshida Yoshiya recorded this passage and the performance of the previous American reporters.

"I feel like after this Kentucky Derby is over, I can publish a popular report across the country with just this thing." The Japanese reporter secretly thought.

……

And the Easy Goer camp is pretty relaxed right now.

Its trainer looked at the track, calm and composed: "Although it is a rematch that Easy Goer has lost before, but this time I told Pat Dai to make Easy Goer more aggressive in the gate, and so on." Take the position forward after the gate is opened to avoid the mistake of not catching up last year."

"I believe in Mr. Claudine's ability." Orton Phipps, the owner of Easy Goer, took the words, "Easy Goer will be 'Secretariat II', and will be a new three-year-old in more than ten years. crown king."

"That's natural!" Claudy has extraordinary confidence in Easy Goer, "The cheap horse he trained by Weidingham will not be the opponent of Easy Goer at all!"

Both camps have sufficient confidence in their horses, and who is the winner and who is the joker will be revealed in 2 minutes.

"Crack!" The sound of the gate opening was so loud to Zhou Taian's ears.He immediately urged a quiet start on Sunday.

On the other hand, Pat Dai and Easy Goer successfully implemented the tactics specified by Claudy before the game, and Easy Goer went out of the gate smoothly like an arrow off the string.And quite smoothly came to the advanced group.

Pat Dai glanced at the opponent beside him, and simply asked Easy Goer to take a few steps diagonally to the left to enter a position on the inner lane to save his feet.

But relatively speaking, Zhou Taian, who is more introverted, did not allow Sunday Tranquility to use this introvert.He continued to let Sunday Tranquility take the three-fold outside route.

"If you do this, you will lose your footwork." Wei Dingxian frowned, "Although I said before the game that he can take positions freely, isn't this kind of position selection too bad..."

"Trust Zhou Jun." Yoshida Zenzai said at the right time, "I think Mr. Zhou Jun's riding level should also be at the bottom, so he definitely has his intentions in choosing this position."

"Now I can only think so." Wei Dingxian waved his hands helplessly, "I just hope he is really sure."

……

When entering the first corner, the development situation of the horse group was already clear-the lead position was taken by Houston, and Easy Goer stayed in the leading group about three horses away from it.

Two horses behind the first group, Zhou Taian and Sunday calmly released the vacancy in the inner lane. Even when they entered the curve, they chose to stay at the outer position with peace of mind, as if there was an air wall in the inner lane.

Two horses behind Zhou Ningjing are the racehorses of the business group.

But now experienced viewers know that these horse races basically don’t need to pay attention to them-some horse races look forward to being in the business group because they have implemented their tactics before the race, and some horses look forward to being in the business group before the race because they are not strong enough. Too able to catch up with the footsteps of the previous opponents in the same field, that's all.

17. The Kentucky Derby in the dream [Part [-]]

After entering the opposite straight, Zhou Taian did not continue to let Zhou Ning stay slightly behind, but began to move forward slowly.

However, he didn't whip the whip either, he just slightly increased his pushing strength to let his partner understand.

The few racehorses and riders in the saddle in the advance group did not respond to the approaching Sunday tranquility.

Of course, Pat Dai on Easy Goer noticed Zhou Taian's actions, but in his opinion, it was not suitable to accelerate forward at this time.

"The final straight of the track in Churchill Park is about 380 meters long. Basically, it is advantageous to go first. I don't need to rush to pull it out. I can wait until the final straight and then let Easy Goer rush out." Going against the instructions of Claudine's trainer.

……

In the stands, Wei Dingxian's mood has calmed down—mainly because Zhou Tai'an didn't work hard after taking the position in the sequence.

He carefully observed the current situation of the horse herd, and then raised his eyebrows: "I seem to understand what Zhou is going to do."

"Eh?" Yoshida Zenzai was taken aback, he didn't expect that the trainer Wei Dingxian, who was worried about Zhou Taian's position just now, would suddenly say such a sentence.

"Let's see where the final straight is going. Maybe I guessed right." Wei Dingxian turned his head and said to Yoshida Yoshiya, "If it's what I think, I suggest that Mr. Zhou just stay. He is in the United States. You can also flex your muscles and maybe even become a future TOP rider.”

"Then Mr. Wei Dingxian has to talk to him." Yoshida Zenzai shook his head, "But I don't think Mr. Zhou will stay here."

"Why?" Wei Dingham was very surprised. "With all due respect, compared to Japan, he will have a better development if he stays here. I can give him resources that 99% of American riders would be envious of."

"Because he has his own main horse in Japan, that is the partner who has accompanied him from his debut to the present." Yoshida Yoshiya looked at the figure of the young man on the track and replied aloud, "And there is another horse behind him who is only 1 The year-old horse made an appointment with him as the main rider not many days after his birth. Zhou Jun will not stay."

"That's true." Wei Dingham thought for a moment, combined with his understanding of young men during this period, he felt that what Yoshida Zenya said made sense, but he did not give up, "But if he can't stay for a long time, I hope he can come to the United States every year Short rides for a while."

"Mr. Wei Dingxian has to tell him about this. After all, Mr. Zhou and I haven't signed any main battle contract, so I can't do anything about him." Yoshida Zenzai grinned.

While Yoshida Zenzai was talking with Wei Dingham's trainer, Sunday Tranquility had entered the final corner.

"Sure enough, the difference between the mud courts between the United States and Japan can only be understood after participating in the competition." Zhou Tai'an, who was on the saddle, observed the actions of the opponents around him, and murmured inwardly.

Japan's dirt track is made up of 100% sand, which also makes the horses run faster when the moisture content is increased.

But the dirt track at Churchill Park Racecourse is different-the "dirt track" here is composed of 75% sand, 23% silt and 2% clay.

It rained heavily in Louisville yesterday, so it's going to be tougher for the horses to run a re-listed race than a good one.

"This also means that if you want to get the fastest speed on this racecourse today, you have to start first."

——Zhou Tai'an, who recognized this clearly, noticed that Sunday Tranquility was about to turn out of the corner.

So without hesitation, he raised his left hand while maintaining the riding movement, and hit the first cue whip.

"Don't choose the right-handed whip that goes inward, but the left-handed whip instead?" Crowdy's trainer caught a glimpse of this scene, and Zhou Tai'an's uncommon sense operation made him pause, and then put it behind him, "Maybe It must have been a misoperation because of the pressure of the Kentucky Derby."

He doesn't think a first-time Kentucky Derby rider won't be nervous and make mistakes.

But what Claudie didn't know was that the young rider he didn't pay attention to had once accompanied a world horse king from his debut to the pinnacle.

How could Zhou Tai'an, who even broke through the World Grass G1's pinnacle of the Arc de Triomphe, be overwhelmed by the pressure of the Kentucky Derby?

After Ning Jing rushed into the final straight and took the first step, Zhou Taian decisively hit the next left-handed whip——
