Real Quiet is my fave. What a horse. That finish is unforgettable.

Bob's a legend. He's won two triple crowns and got 2/3 of the way there another four times. Churchill Downs is ridiculous for their treatment of him. Next year, watch and see, as he will return there and win another Kentucky Derby.

It's understandable why they thought he (American Pharoh) was so stellar. One look at that weanling/yearling photo says it all. Breath taking confirmation and and so well balanced. Quite a looker for a weanling. Love Bob Baffert. Great interview. Bravo!

I have a very fast bouncy Quarter horse. Ridden a thoroughbred in a horse show in a timed event. Big difference!! We miss you this year at the Kentucky Derby Bob.
