BHP MSW-2yo (6.5f): Top Fortitude 92 (Top Hit) K. Owens/K. Stra

Full brother to Uh Oh Bango and beat a nice field including Pimpernel, the $525k Juddmonte purchase out of Xtra Heat from Baffert.. Doesn't look entirely like one that will be limited to three-quarters/seven-eighths either.

Anyone got a Beyer on Aces N Jacks' debut at Retama? He's by that teaser-turned-sire, Jet Phone, and a full to multiple stakes champ Aces N Kings.

Not out yet but based on runner up Bell Bottom, looks like 68-72 range.

Been watching Baffert for a long long time, first time I have seen him train a Juddmonte horse.

They wanted a West Coast string again and sent him a handful. Think another ran Breeders' Cup Week.

Its interesting as Juddmonte always had turf type pedigrees, also with an emphasis on development.

Not sure there is a bigger mismatch, but maybe they want some Derby type runners.

The runner that lost Saturday is very talented, and lost to a talented horse.

Was a good weekend for maidens, San Onfreo looks like a serious sprinter.

I think Baffert will do great with Juddmonte, why wouldnt he?

Because in general they have turf horses and even by his own admission he's not exactly a turf specialist.

I am speculating that they believe First Defence has a real chance to be a very good dirt Stallion.
