Don't know where I heard/read it from, but I had heard/read something of how Baffert had told Espinoza not to use the whip on War Emblem because he doesn't like it. And I do remember hearing Baffert, after the race, teasing Espinoza about how he had told the jock to wait, wait, wait .. and how he got it right this time.
Andicap, I know this is not what you're saying you thought you read .. but you can see how there are sort of some similarities, and maybe someone somewhere lost the real meaning in their coverage??
