Taking a shot with the Desormeaux brothers horse against Baffert.

The 1 can win but this is tougher spot and from rail.

Baffert final wins one and that is a nice looking horse right there, nice mover.

Also Glen Hill had a nice one...Hollendorfer as well. Good mdn race, one of the better ones.

Irish Freedom is legit. Wish he got this race in 2 weeks ago. Id play him in the Travers off it. He signaled at being good early on with a few rough trips.

Yea, he looked real good....slowish time but it was a fast pace.

I like that turf winner from the last. Big pedigree, big works. Was a pro coming up the fence. Nice horse.

Tim Yakteen, nice guy but has never trained a good horse into a real graded winner.

Big Score.

And he trained G1W Points Offthebench as well as his brother Bench Points. I think they should count as good horses into real graded winners.

He definitely has had a decent group of talented horses...they just rarely develop.

Except the ones that do.

He has a small string of mostly George Krikorian Cal breds. He does a good job and you're insulting him for no good reason.

99 Beyer, and with the pace the TF number will be big as well...very nice looking horse.
