Baffert high on Lookin at Lucky

DEL MAR, Calif. - There were nine Grade 1 races run at Del Mar this summer, and trainer Bob Baffert won five of them. He won going short (Zensational), he won going long (Richard's Kid), he won on the turf (Internallyflawless), and, naturally, he won with 2-year-olds, with Lookin at Lucky giving Baffert a record ninth win in the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity on Monday.

Those nine Futurity wins have come in just 14 runnings, and many of the winners have gone on to bigger and better things. Silver Charm, Baffert's first Del Mar Futurity winner in 1996, won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness the next year. Midshipman, last year's winner, captured the Breeders' Cup Juvenile and was named the Eclipse Award-winning 2-year-old male. Baffert said he believes Lookin at Lucky has a bright future, too.

"He's a serious horse," Baffert said.
