Impressive maiden win at Santa Anita Sunday. I know the pace was slow, but final time and come home time off the charts for a mdn win. Son of Unbridled Song out of Distorted Humor dam certainly has a bright future if stays sound. Baffert usually aggressive with his 3yo's so could show up in some of the lesser "Derby" races around.

Don't get your hopes up for this one lasting long.

Another stroll in the park against older condition allowance horses. 1:41 under a hand ride. Will be interesting where Baffert points him next.

Ha Ha. Have worked with many Unbridled Songs that either never made it to the races, or had short careers. So i get your humor. But i really hope he overcomes the stereotype. We need more 3yos to step up and shake up this boring division.

Another victory over cut down field of three in nw2ot at Del Mar. He is ready for a challenge. He comes home fast like a turf horse. Baffert had mentioned WVD before he came down with a temp and missed a few days of training. He would be a great addition to the Travers field..

I had read somewhere if he ran well the Travers was an option. Not sure how beating 2 others affects the decision.

Well they've gotta strike while the iron is hot, probably Travers and/or PA Derby like most other nice 3yo's who still have it together as fall approaches. Nice little race today, took a spot of dirt, ran down an OK older horse loose on the lead while being forced wide several paths as well down the backside. Lots of talent but concern for me is he continues to break slow, not that easy to overcome in a large field with a horse who has speed as an asset.
Is it just me or does an oddly high number of these gray offspring (Unbridled's Songs & Tapits) often seem to have issues with breaking fast during their careers?

He was pointed for the WVD, but had a minor issue.

Kudos to Baffert and Smith for not subscribing to the east coast newsletter on 'winning tactics'. Dominant.
