I frankly think Baffert's not just BSing the claustrophobia thing--between that and the Polytrack he's not lovin' his experience in Cali right now looks like.

hard to say how long he could be off, since it depends on how much hoof he removed. if he just dinged himself, that's one thing, but if they have to wait for the hoof to grow out, it could be months.
