Baffert Horses

Postby Vp123 » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:51 pm

this season at Santa Anita Baffert horses are a real shame, all horses have been very bad.

It is the fault of the riders?

in my opinion very demanding on the horses in the pre-race work and arrive without energy.

IMHO, Baffy is pressed by high dollar owners to get starts from his horses...they either survive his training tactics or don't....the fast works MAY be his way of getting them ready faster....if they don't survive those fast works, it's out the door they go....MOO....if they DO, they are always dangerous...

for what its worth. i knew a vet who worked at the so cal tracks and he told me that bob baffert had an eye for a horse like no other. he said baffert
could watch a horse walk by and diagnose everything that was wrong with him better than any vet could after giving the horse an examination.
dude just wins big races.

The money gets better as the Santa Anita season progresses, and so will Baffert.

Power Broker and Flashback seem to be his top 3 year olds and they are both probable for the Robert Lewis Stakes.

I like those horses. Hope Power Broker gets better luck with his next start. Flashback looks like the future superstar.

Ya what a shame. He's won more Derbys and TC's races than all the trainers in Socal combined by a huge margin.Do me a favor study HR and get back to me in ten years.
