I think you are sadly mistaken that the race would have been split if Charaltan was trained by anyone else. Wouldn't happen for someone like Mary Eppler! The horse most certainty wouldn't have be on the Baffert "program" and run that crazy number First Out! Unfortunately, many in the industry see him as too big to fail, too big to be even questioned and his arrogance continues to run wild.
