Even if Baffert said it. What does it really matter? Its not like he said to try to clip heels and hurt the horse. Float the horse wide, why is it such a big deal? Ill answer that question, its a big deal because Baffert is like the Cowboys or Yankees. People love to hate him. He gets the best horses from the owners with the most $$. Its easy to hate the guy.

I don't give a sh it about Baffert. When a rider does not try to win the race for whatever reason there is a problem. It hurts the integrity of the sport and the gamblers that fund the sport.
