Fed Biz looked like a very good prospect today.
I had mentioned in the thread about the Pletcher Discreet Cat 2yo that the Macho Rocket debut maiden race at Hollywood Park was sure to be a productive race. Macho Rocket was the sales topper at OBS April. He worked an unblinkered 1/4 mile in a sales best 20.40 seconds. He sold for just $22,000 as a yearling -- and resold for $825,000 at OBS April. Baffert had been working Macho Rocket for seemingly forever and even had multiple six furlong works into him and about six gate works into him before his debut. I was pretty certain Macho Rocket would debut at odds-on favortisim if Baffert ever got around to bothering to run him in a race. He debuts on a Sunday at Hollywood Park with Fed Biz in the last race. Fed Biz (A Giant's Causeway out of Wild Again) was the one who was bet. Macho Rocket went wire-to-wire at 6-to-1 odds. TVG cameras showed Baffert staying to watch that race (it was like 8 or 9 PM) ... they pan to him after Macho Rocket won and Baffert looked disgusted. You could tell by his reaction he didn't give a sh!t about Macho Rocket winning and Fed Biz was the reason he was there. Bling Cha Bling pressed Macho Rocket -- made a serious bid for the lead against him on the turn -- and faded to finish 7th. He came back and destroyed a MSW field wire-to-wire in a grass sprint. Fed Biz was 4th as a beaten favorite -- he won the faster of split heats today as a 2nd time starter. Zackn'mat was 2nd to Macho Rocket last out -- he was 2nd to Fed Biz today at 8/1 odds -- and ran faster than the winner of the other split heat at Santa Anita went two races later today.

Very sharp allowance win by Fed Biz at Santa Anita a few minutes ago.
Zackn'mat also returned to win his next start. Macho Rocket is sidelined.

8.5f options would be San Felipe March 10 or Rebel March 17.
If Baffert thought he could straight to 9f, Sunland Derby is March 25.

Bejarano has hustled him into stride in his last two races now -- that really back-fired last time and got him caught in a breakaway duel which he was wrestled out of on the backstretch...this time he was able to settle him a little easier because of the outside post. Very green horse as well once he gets clear. He's running fast now and I get the feeling he has a lot of room for improvement and development. I'm interested to see how he performs when he's given a more passive ride from the gate.

His only start was that good maiden win in Fed Biz's debut race and he hasn't worked since Jan 9th. He had a sales-best 20.40 unblinkered 1/4 mile at OBS April: http://obssales.com/aprcatalog/2011/1049.wmv

I think he's the best 3yr old in the country right now. He's by the best sire and is trained by the best trainer.... It should all work out. Ill take him, battle hardened and and horse who ran second to el padrino who's name I forget. Give me those 3 n I have a derby winner.
