Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. And sad.

I thought it surprising that MEDINA SPIRIT ran a new top in the BC Classic. I expected him to pair up his last: a -1 at best. Yet he did improve. 4W4W.

I don't know what [rocket fuels] get(s) into Bob Baffert's horses. Only Vin Baker knows. And he ain't sayin. [Cuz he's never been asked by our racing press?] See the stories from a few years back about Baffert/Baker's barn deaths involving... what was it? Rat poison? Heart rate effectors? Ugh. Very mysterious and troubling. Strong stuff is part of the equation here.
