Pretty impressive Baffert 2-year old firster winning at 7F today at SA. I am interested in what CJ figures the number for in this race.

The time was pretty legit I believe if the track has been as slow as all this week, horse was green as hell.
Hard to believe that the horse was 7/2 given Smith jumped off the chalk, the horse was named for a life long friend who just passed away and you dont do that with just any old horse.

Great post. Lugged in at the 1/8 pole and Mikey gave him two left handers to straighten him out. He opened up and his gallop out was also impressive.

Wow!!! I think this may be a key race for the finishes behind him. Don't see the 2nd and 3rd finisher not breaking their maidens next out.

Bumper pool in the stretch. Final time of 142 and almost 3 was a good race for all three horses on the wire.

It is a great example of how Los Al is a joke.
That race routinely drew big fields at Hollywood Park. We even had some shippers, such as Todd Pletcher's Violence. It was one of the more fun races on the California stakes schedule, and produced several TC race winners.
At Los Al it draws 5 horse fields with uncoupled Baffert entries.
