Somebody got me yesterday with the "Baffert Retires" April Fools prank. My first thought was about the survival of racing in California. I'm glad it was a joke.
Baffert's moves this year seem to be a bit baffling. Seems like he could have sent one of his Santa Anita entrants to Oaklawn, but he often sends his "B" team runners and even "C" team and still wins. Most of us still gave him a lot of respect in both the Arkansas and Florida Derbies. He's regarded as the GOAT and maybe he's mindful of his importance to Santa Anita. Whatever he sends to Kentucky I will have a wager on.
