My premise is that none of those BC Juvenile shenanigans were Jaycito's doing.

Of course, with Mitchell in his corner at the time, you never know.

How about Mike Mitchell off then?

He's an alchemist ... I'd feel very good about most 3yos going to Baffert .. but Mitchell to Baffert is a weird change of trainer.

I'm not a big jockey guy ... but if I'm training in So. Cal ... my preference of jock in a dirt route is as follows:

Front end speed or stalker:
Victor Espinoza
Bejarano

Mid-pack horse:
Rosario
Gomez
Espinoza

Closer:
Rosario

[VOL JACK]

Why do you like Gomez on a mid pack horse and not on a closer?

Closing Sprinter Jock: Gomez is the best ever!

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Fine. Add him as #2 for closer as well

The list of guys who can't help a horse is much longer.

I'm just glad Party With Brando was able to get an invitation to the Santa Margarita. I mean, she SO deserved it, and for a while I thought she might be left out of the party.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

She made 23 starts in 2010 alone ... and came out firing with 3 starts in the month of Jan... she's a modern day Peat Moss type except she has no ability at all.

LOL. Didnt Abrams have one get an invitation to last years so they could get the race to fill? Im pretty sure she was scratched the day of the race.
