Amazing how those Baffert's outrun their odds. Which is even more reason why Liason is not a Derby horse.

Nice win by I'll Have Another.

C.C. is a talented pu c. Should make a big internal move, and, if he stops, so what? Ain't gunna win a stretch fight. So, turn it into a bank robbery.

Didn't he win the San Felipe in a "stretch fight"?

You're living in a fantasy land. Bodemeister promtped the pace, put away the other speed, and shook clear before being collared at the 1/8th pole by Creative Cause, who immediately went to drifting in and out. That kept a game Bodemeister involved to the 1/16th pole, at which point Creative Cause straightened up and put the "third time runner" away decisively in the span of about 100 yards.

There was no "re-rally" from Bodemeister and Creative Cause certainly never came close to giving up the lead (since he never had it until nearing the wire).

Well, his heart is not that of Jackson Bend's. He needs a horse to get tired. If someone has something left, CC will probably not get it.

The horse lost one photo. Tough crowd.

I guess he's no better than Easy Goer.
