Gotcha. Sure looked good last night, geared down.

Personally, I enjoy years like this one where the water is so murky that you could poll 100 different race trackers and not find a single Top 5 list that would be duplicated.

It was an utter fail running that horse in the Santa Anita Derby off a "short horse" effort in the Battle of Midway allowance.

It's kind of a shame that he came off the bench fully loaded so soon as there is now a second opportunity to burn him out trying to make the Breeder's Cup.

Hopefully Baffert takes it slow and shoots for something like the Clark towards the end of the year.

Of course, the reality is he'll probably show up for the Pennsylvania Derby.
