From the Bloodhorse:

\"We\'ve been blessed – Bob and Beverly and especially myself – in this race,\" Lukas said. \"It would be selfish of me to say, \'Oh, my gosh\' and feel sorry for our situation.\"

Class always tells.

There are four names of horses he has trained with placks on the Churchill grounds. Every trainer out there wants to be where he is.

At the Top.

Tough horse to go out. At least he caught it before he ran him on it again. Hopefully he\'ll be back.

What do you think of Sort it Out\'s chances Silver? At least heads up with Bellamania? The other multi plaque Grey Hair is BACK!

All my kidding aside Baffert has his place. This has to be tough for Wayne to see this one go down a few days out.

Only four more in the next two years for him to catch up with Baffert.

1)Danthebluegrassman
2)Kafwain
3)Indian Express
4)Pukkinatthebar
5)Wimbledone

Bet you will never see that printed in the newspaper.

lol

I have to leave the third person briefly.

I loved those nicks you gave em last year:

Pukkinatthebar and

Wimbledone

lmao

This one he\'s got is getting right at the right time. That last work was outstanding. They said 47.1

Baffert says it was 46.4

He may be cycling miff. He hasn\'t been fast enough, though the race day figures aren\'t available yet. Theres a certain probability he finishes better than Bellamania and a yet to be determined chance he hits the board. That last race he hit the lead and was outfinished. It was a wet track and he was cycling back. Baffert is not your ordinary trainer and as compared to some of the others you have to figure he\'s sitting on a better race. He\'ll have to be.

The main issue is moving up significantly off Iwinski to the Zed/-1 level. The Tgraph Out of Place stallion index might be helpful there.
