He picked Richards Kid early in the day. Yeah I know all about the blind squirrels. But Ken is certainly not going hungry.

I thought it was very unprofessional of him to brag about having Richard's Kid while interviewing Bob Baffert. He really could have asked about the cut back in distance without prefacing it with how "he gave Richard's Kid out on TVG." Congrats on picking a 24-1 shot, but wait until you are on set with Carothers or Bray before making it known it took 4 1/2 years to pick another winner.

It must be very difficult to make that kind of pick, have it pay off, and not be able to celebrate, not feel uncontainable joy, and be unable to let it out. I don't blame him for bubbling over. Professional, schmerfessional...who cares in a moment like that? That was huge.

Why did Baffert put Misremembered in this race???????? Could he have been the bunny in case no one else kept the proper pace for his " other" horse???

I hope his heart hasn't been broken . . . . . . . . damm shame if it did!!!

Congrats first win since Giacomo. In the mean time chasing his selections would have cost you a spleen and a years salary.
