Baffert only with one horse this year. Doug O'Neill also only with one horse. But four separate Pletcher-trained horses on the race card this year.

Likely to be mine as well. I especially like him with Rosario riding.

Derby week here in the 'Ville. There have been private jets flying in over my house to Bowman Field since yesterday morning, and it's always cool getting to see the high-dollar cars rolling around town during Derby Week. Followed this late-60's Rolls Royce Phantom IV down the road at lunchtime today.

Baffert seemed almost shocked that his horse won the race.

Impressive win.  That little horse dug deep down the stretch and just "refused to lose".

2:01 a legit time also.
