Just as I thought & most people thought, & we enjoyed watching American Pharaoh toying with the Rebel field & opening up to win wire to wire by nearly 9 lengths........
Great workout/run by Pharaoh & he showed he's back in track........I clearly think he will win the Arkansas derby.
Now Baffert clearly has the 2 favs going into the KD. If Pharaoh wins as I expect him in the Ark derby, IMO, he will be the fav over Dortmund. Will be very interesting how Baffert races both Dortmund & Pharaoh in the derby.
Pharaoh clearly likes the lead, while Dortmund is capable of being rated.
