It seemed like nonsense at first, but Rock was eventually persuaded to at least consider asking thoroughbred trainers at Oaklawn Park about the inner workings of their horses' minds. It was late in the afternoon, and somewhere among the track's barns, in a particularly dusty spot crowded with pigs and cows and several small farm animals, he saw trainers Wayne Lukas and Steve Asmussen. They each nodded through scowls in silent greetings.
Rock knew there was no way he would ask them anything about the psychological bearings of their horses.
