Baffert's Big Day

Started by richiebee, April 08, 2006, 07:54:37 PM

Two Graded stakes wins at Aq for Stonerside (will help defray the cost of one of the absolute worst private purchases ever...Sort It Out) and three wins on the Santa Anita card, including the maiden win of the $8 million auction FuPeg colt, Mr. Sekiguchi.

Actually with 5 entries at Santa Anita, Baffert had 4 wins and a 2nd in the Santa Anita Derby.

Additionally his call to send Bob and John to the Wood and to purchase Too Much Bling can\'t be overstated. Horsmenship par excellance. I think thats how the prudent French say it.

richiebee: Too Much Bling-- hope BB leaves this one on the East Coast. His daddy Rubiano won almost every important stake 1 mile and under on the NYRA circuit: NYRA Mile, Westchester H (twice), Vosburgh, Carter, Tom Fool, Forego, with a 2nd in the Met Mile.

   Is it true you are contemplating publishing \"A Jesuit Guide to Handicapping\"?

   What I admire about the Jesuit education is that it emphasizes knowing the right questions rather than having all the answers.

   Too much chalk for me today. Spring officially starts in NY on Wednesday-- first turf race is scheduled.

   Planning on passing through Monmouth County again this summer?
