What a shame! Wonder what the story is behind this! 24 is just too young an age to depart. Prayers go out to his family and loved ones!

Very sad! I can't get over this. Only 24 years old. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family and friends. This is awful.

Very sad and very strange. He had been doing so well over the past couple years, I hope there's not criminal activity involved...

I know when he rode in California, he battled a drug problem. This is so sad.

Oh how sad......
It hasn't been all that long, that he was riding first call for Wayne Catalano I think? Wow, very sad news condolences to the entire Baze family.
 Very talented rider, gone way too soon.

Tragic. Very sad.
I read a few of the non-racing media articles about this. More than one identifies Baze as "having just ridden Nehro to a 2nd place finish in the Kentucky Derby." In fact, one article make this mistake, and then one paragraph later states he hadn't ridden in a race since April. I mean, is it really THAT hard to get simple facts correct? Of course, the non-racing media also still refers to any son of Dynaformer as "Barbaro's half-brother."

Very very sad news. The kid had his whole life ahead of him, it's a damn shame. Condolences and sympathies go out to his family.

Wish someone who had seen him not moving in the car had bothered to wander over to the car to check it out in the morning, rather than the afternoon. That really bothers me.

If it was unintentional, or if there was a sudden medical problem, perhaps his life could have been saved if he wasn't left unconcious in 80-degree heat all day in a car, even though people noticed him there in the morning.

This is some tough news today. I talked to this kid more than a half dozen times over beers last summer at Jimmy D's, across the street from Arlington Park.
Yet another reminder that every day is a gift and as Warren Zevon said, "Enjoy every sandwich."
